Glorious day here in DC Metroland. It's 62 and there is delightful fresh air in the house at last.

6:46 am

BzznBea

No rain?

7:01 am

MollyL

All the rain blew through yesterday. It has moved north.

7:01 am

BzznBea

Good. Maybe you can dry out some.

7:02 am

MollyL

Actually, it looks like the remains of Laura have moved out to sea. Yay for drying out!

7:14 am

ChampFit

I can't believe you got more rain than we did! As in, we had ZERO. We were very lucky this time!

7:54 am

MollyL

Oh good Champ. I was hoping you didn't get hit hard by the storm.

7:56 am

ChampFit

We're 70 miles inland, and it turned just enough to the east to miss us. Galveston had some street flooding, but nothing terrible. Much ado about nothing this time.

Afternoon all. In preparation for my new kitchen, I hired a dumpster to throw out a few bits & pieces. The dumpster is full to the brim, and Iâ€™ve only made my wat

9:55 am

Soodle

....way through my utility room. Iâ€™m gonna need abigger dumpster!

9:55 am

hokie carla

sounds like!

9:56 am

Haz1558

I think the fish slapping rose from a Monty Python sketch and was used by a player called Anj, then adopted by others. All a long time ago.

9:56 am

cybernan

lol soodle -- we filled a 2 ton truck when we moved after 27 years in the same house

9:58 am

Soodle

Iâ€™m trying to channel my inner Marie Kondo.

10:05 am

Soodle

A rothweiller. I live alone in a very rural area, and Iâ€™m being tormented with â€˜undesirablesâ€™ offering to â€˜do jobsâ€™ for me. They have become quite aggressive & intimidating. So the kids are buying this for my birthday.

10:19 am

12:03 pm

hokie carla

well, what was the last p on top, moo?

12:04 pm

moolingwa

my last one was a 4 on the top p

12:04 pm

hokie carla

not gomer, I've tried that a couple of times

12:05 pm

Aussieme

No carla, no Gomer.... Poor Gomer

12:06 pm

moolingwa

of the P, no

12:06 pm

ChampFit

Thx.

12:06 pm

hokie carla

seems like I made an Andy Griffith show ref. here before and someone wasn't familiar with the show

12:07 pm

MollyL

Probably Nan, you know how that goes

12:07 pm

hokie carla

LOL, was just going to say maybe nan.

12:07 pm

moolingwa

a lot of almost compound words today

12:07 pm

Aussieme

Maybe those of us who are familiar with him werwn't here at the time, carla?

12:07 pm

hokie carla

but I was thinking it was a European

12:08 pm

hokie carla

I did think Andy Griffith Show was universal

12:09 pm

hokie carla

moo, I feel like I have all 4's from that p, any weird p from that one?

12:09 pm

moolingwa

we didn't have Andy Griffith in NZ that I'm aware of, or it predated me...but we had Gomer Pyle

12:09 pm

hokie carla

ok, not a european. I remember now, it was moo. :D

12:09 pm

moolingwa

yes, I'm uneuropean

12:10 pm

hokie carla

it def. predated you, but so did Gomer Pyle, you must've seen reruns

12:10 pm

ChampFit

finished the top P with the list. Feeling slightly less stupid.

12:10 pm

moolingwa

in fact I grew up about as far away from Europe as you can get

12:10 pm

hokie carla

okay, champ, what am I missing from that p?

12:10 pm

moolingwa

should never feel stupid with this game

12:11 pm

moolingwa

I'm guessing the py4

12:11 pm

hokie carla

I have 2 py4

12:11 pm

moolingwa

or rather, one of them

12:11 pm

hokie carla

was that a trick?

12:11 pm

dan2bit

12:14 pm

hokie carla

never heard of it but managed to make an educated guess, thx

12:14 pm

moolingwa

appears pretty frequently in babble

12:15 pm

hokie carla

hmm. oddly I play babble frequently

12:15 pm

moolingwa

that is odd

12:15 pm

ChampFit

I'd seen it before, but forgotten it.

12:15 pm

moolingwa

maybe you've seen it but not heard it ;)

12:16 pm

hokie carla

it's possible I've seen it and forgotten it too

12:16 pm

hokie carla

this game makes me ra4-y sometimes

12:17 pm

moolingwa

yeah, I get a little hot under the collar at times too

12:17 pm

hokie carla

shirtly you are not serious

12:17 pm

ChampFit

absolutely

12:18 pm

moolingwa

I was expecting a cuff across the ear for that one

12:18 pm

moolingwa

but I didn't want to seem to buttoned down

12:18 pm

hokie carla

we better button this down soon

12:18 pm

moolingwa

to=too

12:18 pm

hokie carla

darnit

12:19 pm

moolingwa

okay, so it was a blousy pun

12:19 pm

hokie carla

about to lose the thread here

12:19 pm

moolingwa

let's sleeve it at that then

12:20 pm

hokie carla

we have more pressing matters

12:20 pm

hokie carla

don't want to get hemmed in

12:20 pm

moolingwa

that is certain a material argument

12:21 pm

moolingwa

took me a while to cotton on to what was going on though

12:21 pm

hokie carla

let's just top this off here

12:21 pm

moolingwa

still, this whole game is about textiles

12:22 pm

moolingwa

but I've in-vest-ed so much in these puns

12:23 pm

hokie carla

well, you might want to suspend them

12:26 pm

moolingwa

brb, just confirmed my dishwasher is leaking, need to take care of that

12:26 pm

hokie carla

yikes, good luck

12:26 pm

hokie carla

and don't worry, I'm stuck at 21

12:28 pm

Aussieme

I'm only 44 words in to the gr4/7 so, got a lot of work to do yet lol

12:28 pm

12:30 pm

Aussieme

It's 6.30pm here. I need to be up in 12 hours and 'm not in bed yet lol

12:31 pm

12:32 pm

Aussieme

About 10pm usually, but it's Bank Holiday toomorrow here, and we're off out for the day so gotta be up early

12:32 pm

hokie carla

12:32 pm

Aussieme

12:33 pm

hokie carla

it's like the song from Annie - tooooomorrow

12:34 pm

Aussieme

nearly carla lol..... I hope the sun comes out tomorrow, I'm fed up of the rain

12:35 pm

hokie carla

12:41 pm

hokie carla

I mean, I know what it starts with, lol

12:42 pm

ChampFit

Sometimes I know a word is there, but don't actually see it. Of course, it's going left, or up, or something.

12:42 pm

hokie carla

yes, same. but this one I don't have any ideas

12:44 pm

hokie carla

12:45 pm

HarryHood

hallo. 30 to go here

LuvWordGames

8:17 pm

Karin HR

I joined Babbel to learn more Dutch!!

8:17 pm

hokie carla

you are at the wrong place. babbel is the language teacher website, this is babble game. totally unrelated

8:17 pm

Karin HR

I joined Babble to learn more Dutch!

8:18 pm

Karin HR

So where are you?

8:18 pm

hokie carla

babbel.com is what you want

8:18 pm

hokie carla

this is a game that has nothing to do with learning languages

8:18 pm

hokie carla

it's like boggle

8:25 pm

moolingwa

it's all greek to me

8:29 pm

hokie carla

8:34 pm

moolingwa

10:13 pm

firefly779

A lot of fantasy characters in the grid: Wargs, Gorgs, and Groot :)

10:15 pm

gingin

sl5/16... think video chat platform, but change the second letter to a different consonant

10:16 pm

gingin

Made sense to me. Thanks, gingin.

Spending my evening listening to Blind Faith. Loved Steve Winwood in that band.

11:03 pm

rbud

ooh, cool! I like old Traffic, too. "John Barleycorn Must Die" album - "Glad" and "Empty Pages" - yayus. "Empty Pages" kicks butt when it gets rolling about 2 min in - "and she's good at appearing sane" - used to be sorta my theme song back when.

11:08 pm

origami

Oh, yes, Traffic. I forget about some of the old bands. Steve Winwood was great. Then he went on his solo career and went all 70's. That was not so great. But now he is recording old songs a cappella and they are pretty good.

11:10 pm

rbud

the "Dear Mr. Fantasy" album was big amongst my musical buddies, too, but that's a given.

11:12 pm

origami

I liked that jazzy/bluesy Traffic sound. And Winwood's voice, of course.

11:19 pm

rbud

"the Low Spark of High-Heeled boys", haha

11:22 pm

origami

Here's one of Winwood's recent a capella versions of a Traffic song: https://tinyurl.com/nlfcvfp

I loved traffic saw them once in sf

11:25 pm

I love acoustic. Really nice job, and thanks. I bet a lot of music like this is lurking around with all the self-isolation. John Fogerty is putting out some great stuff with his kids, just sitting around the house.

11:26 pm

origami

I meant acoustic, not a capella. He is playing his guitar.

11:26 pm

rbud

Gotcha. Would sorta be waste if he didn't play, haha

11:27 pm

rbud

he's a guitar god, after all. ;)

11:28 pm

origami

Lucky, ru! The Rolling Stone channel in YouTube has been putting out a lot of videos like this. People sitting around their house singing with just their guitar. Pretty cool.
