7:04 am
hokie carla
I think it is calm here but temp dropped to 48
7:04 am

Bea, we have the tornado you all were dealing with yesterday. As they would say in Ireland, it's blowing a hooly out there.
7:05 am
sukee
Good morning all
7:05 am
BzznBea
Crazy weather.
7:06 am
BzznBea
Hey, Sukee.
7:06 am
BzznBea
I hope we don't lose power today.
7:06 am
hokie carla
never mind, just took the dog out and it is still windy
7:07 am
hokie carla
I hope you don't lose power too!
7:07 am
sukee
Not too bad here, a little windy, snowy and cold
7:08 am
hokie carla
my high schooler is out of school today. not sure about the rest of the county but the road his school is on is closed on both sides of the school with flooding.
7:08 am
BzznBea
Yes, I think there are a lot of school up here too closed do to road flooding.
7:11 am
hokie carla
and I said that weird. the whole county is closed too but I'm not sure if there are other roads closed
7:12 am
hokie carla
molly, hopefully you are ready to take cover
7:14 am
MollyL
Well, if you can call being at work taking cover, yeah.
7:15 am
BzznBea
Do they have a storm plan, Molly?
7:16 am
MollyL
Ha, ha, ha...keep working no matter what.
7:17 am
hokie carla
sounds like a plan! ;)
7:17 am
BzznBea
Grab your computer and crawl under your desk.
7:20 am
hokie carla
I was this close (had the s typed in) to typing spam
7:20 am
sukee
I always try it :)
7:20 am
hokie carla
seems so natural as a word
7:21 am
BzznBea
I feel like I was hit by a tornado. I had my first shingles shot and a pneumonia shot yesterday. I ache all over.
7:21 am
NatashaW
My goodness it is really coming down hard now (just outside DC). Yikes! But at least it's rain. My kid's in college in Montreal and they're getting 12-18 inches of snow plus 60 km wind gusts.
7:21 am
hokie carla
I was about to ask if you made it to your appt, bea. as someone who's had shingles, I'm glad you got the shot.
7:22 am
NatashaW
Ooh you had both at the same time Bea? I've been procrastinating on getting the shingles shot as I had the previous one and I hear the new one is NOT fun
7:22 am
hokie carla
wow, Natasha. that sounds brutal.
7:22 am
sukee
I agree, I had shingles a couple of years ago. Awful, still get the nerve pain.
7:22 am
NatashaW
Okay, you both are persuading me I should go get the Shingrix... ugh
7:23 am
BzznBea
Get the shingles shot! Worth a day or two of aches as opposed to the shingles.
7:23 am
bichon
I've had shingles, and had the shot. Awful experience
7:23 am
PastorJ
I had that same shot combo in December, and yeah, it laid me out for a day or two. But I know someone suffering from post-herpetic neuralgia and she feels like she's in hell, so I'll take whatever discomfort the shot may give! The second shot was not as bad.
7:23 am
hokie carla
did you have the shot before or after, bichon?
7:23 am
Jeff7
get the vaccine!
7:23 am
bichon
doh, sorry
7:23 am
sukee
Yes, a nurse told me it wasn't a given that the shot would prevent it. But I would definitely get it. I will when I can afford it.
7:24 am
bichon
Had shingle first, but it was years later that I had the shot
7:24 am
hokie carla
I will get it when I'm old enough. I don't think I can get it now.
7:24 am
sukee
I think the odds of getting it again are low but I have heard of people having shingles several times.
7:24 am
BzznBea
Yes, Pastor J, my mom had no trouble with the second shingles shot.
7:25 am
hokie carla
my neighbor here has had it 2 or 3 times and she is just 40ish. I think she was 30s when she had both cases. she said she begged for the shot and they said she couldn't get it until 50.
7:25 am
sukee
I just fell into the two UK words.
7:26 am
BzznBea
Carla, it rained like crazy all the way down. My BP was a "little" high.
7:26 am
hokie carla
hmm, now looking for words with extra vowels
7:26 am
markbowers7
why isn't sp5/20 also sp7?? argh, Enable!!
7:26 am
hokie carla
I bet, Bea!
7:28 am
markbowers7
...also ta4/8 should have the archaic ta6 available...
7:28 am
hokie carla
how many sp5/20's do you have, mark? I have 2 and don't see a possible 7.
7:28 am
markbowers7
archaic past tense, as in He giveth and ta6 away
7:29 am
hokie carla
ah, yes it's odd how some words that is in and some it isn't
7:29 am
BzznBea
Any one find any dh or ph words?
7:30 am
Vicuna
The sp5/20 that rhymes with ta4th away is a past tense. The archaic ending is a present tense ending for third person. There was never a time in English when it was a valid word to combine them.
7:30 am
hokie carla
I would never find a dh word without a prompt of some kind.
7:30 am
hokie carla
no to the ph too
7:31 am
hokie carla
I did just find some foreign money though
7:35 am

7:48 am
MollyL
Natasha does know her Bible
7:48 am
hokie carla
she does! yesterday it was the shittah
7:49 am
NatashaW
the top e is a verb meaning um... ok... to eject or secrete from the body
7:49 am
hokie carla
thx, bea. point total seems impossible though
7:49 am
NatashaW
I go to synagogue pretty much every Shabbat and we read the Torah in a triennial cycle
7:49 am

7:53 am
BzznBea
ES, Carla.
7:53 am
BzznBea

7:53 am
NatashaW
yes, that's it. a standard 4,4 babblet
7:53 am
hokie carla
ok, I don't have any es but have been looking. I do see es4 from the bible. :D
7:54 am
NatashaW
he who lost his portion
7:54 am
NatashaW
this is more prosaic... a plural of a letter of the alphabet
7:54 am
hokie carla
omg, can't believe I missed that.
7:54 am
NatashaW
I ALWAYS find that my last words are the bleedin' obvious ones
7:55 am
hokie carla
and that led to the o I couldn't find
7:55 am
NatashaW
ooh, thanks for that carla! Didn't know that word
7:56 am
hokie carla
I don't know it either, just remembered it was a babblet too
7:58 am
hokie carla

7:58 am
LuvWordGames

8:00 am
NatashaW

8:00 am
LuvWordGames
yw, it was a wild guess for me
8:00 am
hokie carla
ps - I was thinking blanket or coat :D
8:00 am
NatashaW

8:00 am
hokie carla

8:01 am
hokie carla

8:01 am
hokie carla

8:03 am
hokie carla

8:03 am
BzznBea
Weird...I have 8 POs but my tile says I only have 6.
8:03 am
MollyL
I don't know, but if I burn The Washington Po4, that is definitely po8ing : D
8:04 am
hokie carla

8:07 am
hokie carla

9:33 am
lil*monkey
I've seen it written tuke. Oh well.
9:33 am
penquis
well French Canadians say tuque....for a knitted hat....
9:33 am
penquis
had this discussion with nan a while back...
9:34 am
penquis
dictionary.com defines it as a heavy stocking cap worn in Canada....
9:34 am
lil*monkey
OK thanks for that!
9:36 am
penquis
toque is defined as a type of brimless hat....like what chefs wear....
9:37 am
lil*monkey
Some people call that knitted hat a toboggan
9:38 am
lil*monkey
which I thought was a SLED not a had
9:39 am
penquis
toboggan is a type of sled....the national toboggan championships are held near where i live.....we had one when i was a kid....six feet long with the front curled up....all wood....
9:41 am
lil*monkey
Yes I've been on that when I lived in England. Then I moved to US around 1969 and everyone was calling their hat a toboggan.
9:42 am
penquis
never heard of it as a hat....but then again, I grew up with Franco Americans, so we called our hats tuques...
9:42 am

Google says southerners use toboggan referring to a hat and northerners use it referring to a sled.
9:59 am
penquis
i don't expect southerners do much toboganning....
10:03 am
MollyL
Probably not : D
10:03 am
penquis
i remember my younger brother and his friends went toboganning down a slope with power lines on it....they flew up in the air and landed in a brook. Luckily, no serious injuries but that was the end of our toboggan...
10:09 am
MollyL
When I was a kid I got stuck sitting in the front of a toboggan. I have a scar on my chin to prove it.
: D
10:12 am
penquis
hah.....the kid sitting in the front with my brother got a mild concussion...
10:12 am
penquis
they were lucky they did not hit one of the power line structures...
10:21 am

10:52 am

10:52 am

10:53 am
cybernan
oh no -- a broken leg or arm?
10:55 am
penquis
no....he was ok....he was at the back, i think....the kid in front had a concussion....
10:58 am
penquis
the toboggan was a total loss.....i think my mother was happy about that....
10:59 am
cybernan
most important not to run on ice or near a tree!
11:00 am
penquis
yes, they were lucky they did not hit the power line structures...they crashed in a shallow brook....
11:00 am

According to one article, these are all the names for a knit, wool hat: beanie, benny hat, bobbie hat, chook/chuke, jeep cap, monmouth cap, mossa, radar cap, sipple cap, stocking cap, toboggan, toque/tuque, watch cap, woolly hat
11:01 am

to DeathXM - compare the two grids. Top grid the u's are worth 2 points. tile stats the u above the t can be used to start 3 u words, the u below the t is not used. If you still can not find the u work go to Lickety's babble clues and this great Australian player has a list.
