1:30 am

hurshy

hurshy

1:35 am

rbud

ch6/30

1:35 am

hurshy

thanks, rbud. i'd been dancing around that idea cause i felt like there was some babblet but couldn't quite pin it down

1:36 am

rbud

not sure what it is, haha

1:37 am

rbud

I mean, I have it, but haven't looked it up

1:38 am

hurshy

1:41 am

hurshy

monkeyed the or7

1:42 am

hurshy

and the ge7

1:47 am

rbud

yay, got all the 7's. need any?

1:48 am

hurshy

yes, the ke, and one of the re... if one goes with re8, then it's that one

1:49 am

rbud

two of the re 7's have to do with playing cards - accidentally playing the wrong suit? I think it is. re6, re7, re7

1:49 am

hurshy

oh brother, i had the person who, but not the other one, lol

1:50 am

hurshy

*bops self with fish*

1:51 am

rbud

the re8 stands alone, and the last re7 is what happens right before your space capsule lands in the ocean. Timely, haha.

1:51 am

hurshy

is standing alone a clue related to its meaning, or just... a fact about it

1:52 am

rbud

well... right before you float down through the atmosphere.

1:52 am

rbud

no, I just mean it isn't based on anything here. Perhaps I should look it up.

1:55 am

rbud

Hm. Good word, I should try to remember it. Means resistant or recalcitrant. Sounds like me. :D

1:56 am

rbud

Ends with the canvas camping structure.

1:56 am

hurshy

aha, thanks :D

1:58 am

hurshy

and the ke?

1:59 am

hurshy

i've tried SO MANY THINGS! lol

2:00 am

rbud

well, I thought for sure it was probably something in a body lotion to plump up wrinkles or something like that... but nooo

2:00 am

rbud

it's "a complex fossilized organic material, found in oil shale and other sedimentary rock"

2:02 am

hurshy

thanks

2:02 am

hurshy

now i only have 4 words left

2:03 am

hurshy

3, got my last 4 letter word

2:04 am

rbud

whew, glad you got it, was stretching my brain cells to come up with another actual clue

2:04 am

hurshy

yeah i just searched up the definition :D

2:05 am

rbud

well, that was the hope, but when I tested it, the word wasn't so obvious

2:05 am

hurshy

it took me to quizlet and i scrolled down the page

2:07 am

hurshy

alrighty, i'm done - anything you need clued or are you done too?

2:07 am

rbud

no, not really trying that hard. Nearly halfway,but have all the big ones. Congrats!

2:18 am

rbud

3:36 am

mattygroves

I try oreo EVERY TIME

6:36 am

rururocks

well.. there are cookies on this website

6:36 am

MollyL

I was thinking of baking some cookies in the PB for the hurricane party

6:51 am

hokie carla

just opened this up and syringe jumped out at me. not really there so I probably should finish my coffee.

6:51 am

hokie carla

and we have sunshine and 71F here right now

6:52 am

rururocks

nice of you to poke in hokie

6:52 am

hokie carla

how are the coasters doing?

6:52 am

rururocks

just in time to needle us some

6:52 am

hokie carla

I just need to stick to it, ru

6:52 am

BzznBea

Morning all.

6:53 am

rururocks

hi bea.. how is the eye thing?

6:53 am

hokie carla

hey bea, what's the weather report from your house?

6:54 am

BzznBea

I'm still a bit blearry from sleep, but I think the floater has gotten smaller.

6:55 am

BzznBea

We had 5 inches of much needed rain and very little wind. Starteng to clear up now.

6:56 am

hokie carla

wow

6:57 am

MollyL

I have been referring to this storm as Eye-say-is until I listened to some weather and learned the Eee-say-eee-is thing.

6:58 am

BzznBea

I did see that Bertie county was devastated by the storm. But it always gets slammed.

6:58 am

hokie carla

interesting, must be spanish

6:58 am

MollyL

Ole

6:58 am

hokie carla

what's in Bertie Co?

6:58 am

BzznBea

Are you expecting any of the storm, Molly?

7:00 am

MollyL

We already have heavy rains and tornadoes popping up south of here. The highways are a mess with accidents. I emailed work and said NFW for today.

7:01 am

MollyL

The biggest problem around here is going to be flooding and downed trees due to saturated ground.

7:01 am

hokie carla

lol, good for you

7:01 am

rururocks

nfw?

7:01 am

hokie carla

no f'ing way, come on ru

7:01 am

BzznBea

Nothing in Bertie County. Pretty poor county though. It had a tornado from the storm and it always floods.

7:02 am

MollyL

That is one abbreviation I use in deference to the delicate

7:02 am

BzznBea

I'm glad you said you were staying home, Molly.

7:02 am

hokie carla

is it on the coast? where was landfall? I wonder if Sunset got hit.

7:05 am

hokie carla

ooh, just saw landfall was Ocean Isle, that's just north of Sunset. better check with my friends.

7:06 am

BzznBea

Bertie is inland and north. It made landfall near Ocean Isle.

7:11 am

hokie carla

my friend checked with someone at Sunset and they said it was more like a bad thunderstorm there.

7:14 am

BzznBea

Yes, it was just a cat 1 at landfall.

7:15 am

rururocks

so no dogs?

7:16 am

MollyL

Oh great. This is what happens when I watch the news. There is an FDA list of over 100 DANGEROUS hand sanitizers?

7:18 am

MollyL

Okay, really? One of them is "Hello Kitty Hand Sanitizer"

7:18 am

BzznBea

No dogs.

7:18 am

BzznBea

I've seen that list too, Molly. Most of them are from China and Mexico.

7:18 am

rururocks

usually when it's raining cats.. it always has dogs too

7:18 am

hokie carla

hand sanitizers have been a problem for a while. they've been saying they are making the antibiotic resistant bacteria worse.

7:19 am

hokie carla

not sure why these are dangerous but I guess they mean for other reasons

7:19 am

MollyL

I have always believed that it's better to use soap and water on your hands

7:19 am

hokie carla

same

7:20 am

MollyL

They say some of them contain methanol

7:20 am

hokie carla

ah

7:20 am

hokie carla

and I guess that's bad?

7:21 am

MollyL

Um yeah, it's toxic. They say if you used sanitizer with methanol you should seek immediate treatment for poisoning.

7:21 am

hokie carla

I may have told this before - one of my friends in high school said she cut her hand pretty bad and her grandmother packed it with brown sugar and poured turpentine on it. I guess that was an old home remedy. could you imagine what is in turpentine?

7:22 am

bojazz

turpentine comes from a specie of pine tree...

7:23 am

hokie carla

so you're saying it's natural, must be safe? :D

7:24 am

rururocks

only if used on limbs hokie

7:26 am

hokie carla

ooh, singular of a classic 80s movie in the grid today

7:26 am

BzznBea

It can be ingested in small doses. Like drops. And I'm sure you would want pure turpentine and not just some paint thinner.

7:27 am

rururocks

my best puns always go away being missed

7:28 am

hokie carla

sorry, ru. I got it but wasn't sure how to respond. :D

7:28 am

MollyL

We thought you were just barking up the wrong tree, Ru

7:29 am

rururocks

i was rooting for approval :D

7:30 am

hokie carla

maybe we should just leave this alone

7:30 am

rururocks

i'm trying to branch out in my humor

7:31 am

rururocks

easy grid.. just the k and the o gave me some trouble

7:33 am

hokie carla

hmm, I thought regne was one of those words we have all the time that I don't know, but I must be thinking of something else.

7:33 am

bichon

ch 6/30, pls

7:33 am

BzznBea

regna is often on the grid

7:34 am

bojazz

maybe "regna"...

7:34 am

hokie carla

ah, thx, bea

7:34 am

hokie carla

and bo

7:35 am

tceicher

irk

7:40 am

hokie carla

well, I'm not sure I'd call this easy, ru. still 37 left after first pass. I did get to halfway on everything except the c and the right side o, oh, and the s.

7:41 am

hokie carla

gotta get busy now. TTFN.

8:10 am

MollyL

Judi gets a gold star and a pair of galoshes

8:22 am

Judi

* stomps in puddle * Yay!

8:23 am

MollyL

I've been watching people drive into standing water all morning on the news. Oh, the sheer stupidity of it all.

8:23 am

Judi

Yeah, those people deserve to have their insurance companies drop them like hot potatoes.

8:25 am

MollyL

I used to have a neighbor who was an EMT. He helped rescue two people whose car got stuck in standing water. Where were they going? To get doughnuts. No lie.

Trifioso

hi friends. does anyone on here have a Chromebook?

2:24 pm

stidmama

I do, what's up trifioso

2:24 pm

Trifioso

I Have a bunch of PDfs that I dont need anymore, but damned if I can figure out how to delete them.

2:24 pm

Trifioso

and thanks, stid

2:25 pm

stidmama

Does your chromebook have a hard drive, or is everything online?

2:25 pm

Trifioso

maybe I dont actually "have" them at all? They are listed under my files, then under recent, then under read only

2:25 pm

Trifioso

Im thinking you are on to it there, stidmama - they must not be on my cbook at all?

2:26 pm

Trifioso

i MISS the days when computers came with operating manuals.

2:28 pm

stidmama

Yep, probably go into the files, select the PDF and right click (double-finger tap on a trackpad) then choose delete.

2:29 pm

stidmama

That should delete them from the cloud. It would also work if they were in a file on a physical hard drive.

2:29 pm

Trifioso

the weird thing is, when I right click on it, delete is a greyed out option

2:30 pm

stidmama

hm. let me think...

2:31 pm

Trifioso

its okay I dont want to hold up your game nor hog the chog. (poem)

2:32 pm

Trifioso

I appreciate your consideration

2:32 pm

stidmama

There is a quick tutorial on Business insider from last December that might help. https://tinyurl.com/y5qz356h

2:32 pm

stidmama

Love the rhyme! :-d

2:32 pm

Trifioso

thank you!!!!

2:33 pm

stidmama

I am searching for one more word and then I will be halfway and NBT NBS. :-) My new goals for grids are more modest than formerly.

2:47 pm

HarryHood

2:47 pm

Trifioso

THAT will wag a few staff lunchroom tongues

2:47 pm

Trifioso

I hope hope hope it rains.

2:48 pm

HarryHood

unlikely on the south shore

2:48 pm

Trifioso

sigh. i know. I think i am giving up on my garden.

2:48 pm

HarryHood

my garlic yield was way down

2:49 pm

Trifioso

i can report one zucchini. ONE. unheard of!

2:49 pm

HarryHood

holy cow

2:49 pm

HarryHood

that's pretty sad

2:50 pm

Trifioso

i cannot say, in all seriousness, that I knew a vine could only produce one zucchini

2:50 pm

HarryHood

did it have more flowers

2:50 pm

Trifioso

yes

2:50 pm

HarryHood

they just didnt produce?

2:51 pm

Trifioso

and no borers or anything. I think it just died of lack of rain

2:51 pm

HarryHood

mebbe the goats got theM/

2:51 pm

Trifioso

they just didn't produce.

2:51 pm

Trifioso

naw, they can;t get in the garden

2:51 pm

HarryHood

bummer

2:51 pm

Trifioso

goats have had a VERY good week - hard pruning of the grape arbor led to christmas every day for them

2:52 pm

HarryHood

happy for them

2:52 pm

HarryHood

we saw seals this morning

2:53 pm

HarryHood

but thankfully no larger predators :)

2:53 pm

Trifioso

2:53 pm

HarryHood

on shore!

2:53 pm

Trifioso

2:53 pm

HarryHood

they were right next to the beach!

2:54 pm

HarryHood

kids were very excited

2:54 pm

HarryHood

well not the teenagers. but the littler kids

2:54 pm

Trifioso

is this a habitual thing for you all? do you always do a trip to falmouth? I am trying to remember....

2:54 pm

HarryHood

no - we were on the cape last summer for a few days, but not in falmouth

72 Temple Owl

it's on line, you can stream it

3:13 pm

72 Temple Owl

they set up for five socially distant ticketed live performances and three ssold out. they added a sixth. people want to get out.

3:18 pm

Trifioso

thats so great!

3:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

they 've st up the parking lot with food trucks of favorite vendors. it's a grab and go, and on Sunday i counted over 1700 people coming though in 8 hours.

3:20 pm

Trifioso

pleeeeeeeeease tell me you saw lots and lots of masks?

3:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

people want something fun and normal. who wants to cook when it's beast;y?

3:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh yes. i was outdoors. and there were not more than 50 people in the whole lot at a time. that's the reason we counted- coutned in, counted out.

3:21 pm

Trifioso

i actually tutored today in person, outside. felt so weird

3:21 pm

72 Temple Owl

only one person said he had a breathing problem. people know the drill and we had masks to provide just in case, but i only gave out one.

3:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

and restrooms only for workers and vendors.

3:22 pm

Trifioso

well thats just MEAN! lol

3:23 pm

HarryHood

stuck at 21. listing !

3:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

it's a risk, but measured. working the televised concerts thrusday and friday. just bands, techs, and a few listerners.

3:24 pm

72 Temple Owl

no it's NOT. it's supposed to be grab and go but folks could sit on benches at the visitors center next door if they wanted. some picknicked at their cars in the separate parking area

3:25 pm

72 Temple Owl

our governor will not allow large crowds

3:26 pm

72 Temple Owl

Trifioso

another disappointing day here - grey skies, winds, all the suggestions of rain - but nary a drop

3:29 pm

72 Temple Owl

i guess. but if they were public i would not have been there. the idea was no place for folks to congregate- grab food, tka eit home

3:29 pm

72 Temple Owl

so was it weird to tutor?

3:29 pm

Trifioso

in person, ues

3:29 pm

Trifioso

HarryHood

I took a small screwdriver and gently pried it off

3:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

gently what? beat it ?

3:38 pm

HarryHood

then blew at it alot, wiped it out, and replaced it

3:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

getting ot off is not a problem; it's reattaching it!

3:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am sure it is from sanitizing.

3:39 pm

5:14 pm

hokie carla

I have read that too! bought this stuff called kerasol or something. when that runs out I'll try the Vicks.

5:15 pm
