I read 74% of stations in my area are out of gas, ru. you are lucky. I filled up Sun. morning when I left VA. $3.32/gal that day. My car gets 33mpg and I never go anywhere.

just read the chat - have to say, I would love to pay $3.32/gal for gas -- gas here has been $5.25 per gallon for over a year and will likely go up for the May long weekend.
10:03 am
hokie carla
well, at least you'll have gas
10:04 am
hokie carla
have limped down to 13 left
10:04 am
cybernan
It doesn't really matter though -- with travel restricted to essential travel only I just go to medical appointments and the grocery store. I will be filling the tank this week for the first time in over a month.
10:05 am
hokie carla
yeah, I rarely go places in my car
10:07 am
cybernan
It will be interesting to see if the inability of people to travel will have an effect on the number of new covid cases. The medical authorities here have narrowed infection increase down to travel between towns and areas of the province. They have been doing a lot of contact tracing to come up with this, so I assume there is some basis in fact.
10:08 am
MollyL
Seem this is why I say things are not "free" in Canada. No you are not charged for health care, but you sure do pay for it in your gas and luxury taxes.
10:08 am
MollyL
See...not seem
10:10 am
cybernan
health care is federal - gas and sales taxes are mostly provincial, the gas tax supposedly supporting highway infrastructure.
10:11 am
bonkler
quite happy to pay taxes to see that everyone is covered. Freedom to suffer, starve or perish from lack of care isn't very appealing. There are definite problems with our system but I wouldn't trade it for "freedom" brand health care in a million years.
10:12 am
cybernan
agreed bonkler
10:12 am
mael
taxes in Canada are not any higher, really, they just go to pay for things like healthcare as opposed to tax breaks for billionaires
10:13 am
mael
the US's lack of social services is obscene
10:13 am
cybernan
5% GST is a small price to pay compared to a 100k medical bill
10:14 am
hokie carla
my mom tried to get help from social services for my dad when she was taking care of him and they were like, we can't help you. so glad they paid taxes for that all those years.
10:15 am
hokie carla
she just wanted someone to help her find a caregiver
10:17 am
cybernan

MLFAN17

11:03 am
hokie carla
I can't think of any endings common today
11:03 am
cybernan
du jour means of the day, mlf, soup du jour is soup of the day
11:05 am
hokie carla
methinks mlfan was making a joke
11:05 am
cybernan
ok - sorry - thought you needed a translation from the french

12:54 pm
hokie carla
what do you think my 4 is, F T or F?
12:54 pm
moolingwa
well, they're not hugely difficult for either
12:55 pm
moolingwa
they're either common words, or commonly found here for the most part
12:55 pm
moolingwa
perhaps the "digital" t?
12:56 pm
moolingwa
or there's the t4 bird, which you probably never heard of, but comes up from time to time
12:56 pm
moolingwa
on the f's perhaps the mutt, or the too and...
1:09 pm
hokie carla
had to take Winston out

1:31 pm
moolingwa
they're all relatively easy hoke
1:32 pm
moolingwa
in fact two of the ones I suggested one on the f, and one on the t...have the same two vowel combo in them
1:33 pm
hokie carla
I must've reached the point of no new words
1:35 pm
hokie carla
aha, the T was a a 5 scottish babblet (of course). so the 4 is definitely an F
1:36 pm
HarryHood
10 to go.
1:37 pm
hokie carla
I have F4 and F5, but you are going to finish before me at this rate, Harry
1:37 pm

basically I'm saying I'll be very impressed if you know these words
2:01 pm
moolingwa
yeah, figured as much
2:01 pm
joym999
spending my lunch break here, looking for those elusive 7 letter words. I only have 3 so far.
2:03 pm
moolingwa
well, stumbled on the 7
2:03 pm
moolingwa
new to me too
2:04 pm
periwinkle
hi folks tough grid for me
2:04 pm
MotherOwl
ha7 is a family to nightmares ;)
2:04 pm
moolingwa
yeah, just looked it up...sheesh
2:04 pm
joym999
family to nightmares?
2:04 pm
MotherOwl
Wow sorry two sentenses made into one = scrambled language
2:05 pm
moolingwa
it's an esoteric old-timey word...pt
2:05 pm
MotherOwl
I meant that the word ha7 reminds me of the meaning of nightmare. They might be somehow aquainted.
2:06 pm
moolingwa
the definition suggests so
2:06 pm
moolingwa
I wonder if it's where JK Rowling got the name for a certain character
2:06 pm
MotherOwl
You took the words out of my mouth
2:07 pm
joym999
now that's a real clue, moo...maybe I can find it now
2:10 pm
joym999
Got it! Def. related to the HP character IMO. One of my favorites!
2:11 pm
joym999
So now have 4 7s -- HA, GR, CY x 2. What are the other 3? I don't want to list yet.
2:12 pm
moolingwa
in addition to what you have
2:14 pm
joym999
are they real words or babblets?
2:14 pm
moolingwa
all three are words you would know
2:15 pm
moolingwa
the h is a little tricky, not because it isn't a word you've heard of before, because it's not one that necessarily comes to mind when looking for words
2:15 pm
moolingwa
and if you want clues, I'd be happy to oblige
2:16 pm
joym999
thanks moo...I'll play around for a while before I give up in exasperation and ask for clues.
2:17 pm
moolingwa
trying to find my last 6
2:17 pm
hokie carla
was just asking that
2:24 pm
moolingwa
well, finally guessed it
2:24 pm
moolingwa
new one too
2:24 pm
joym999
OK, found the 2 other G7s. Onto that tricky H7!
2:24 pm
hokie carla
I'm impressed :D
2:25 pm
moolingwa
don't get angry if you struggle
2:25 pm
hokie carla
do you want a clue, joy? HA7 or HO7?
2:25 pm
hokie carla
oh, from moo's statement I guess it's HO
2:26 pm
joym999
I have an HA7, so i guess I need the HO7. Not ready for a clue just yet.
2:28 pm
MotherOwl
those G words .. I mis-spelled them eleventyfive ways :(
2:32 pm
joym999
Onto the 6 letter words! Only 10 of them, which is good for me. For some reason the 6s are the hardest for me.
2:33 pm
joym999
OK, here are the 6s I have already -- CA, CH, GA, HA, RA, RO. Can someone tell me what the other 4 are? First two letter only plz.
2:34 pm
MotherOwl
There's 3 g7 ?
2:34 pm
joym999
yup..3 of 'em
2:34 pm
hokie carla
CY HA RO
2:34 pm
hokie carla
have to go through again to see the 4th
2:35 pm
MotherOwl
Can I get a clue for the last one I have ga & gr
2:35 pm
hokie carla
another GR
2:36 pm
joym999
there are two GR7s. one is a past tense.
2:36 pm
MotherOwl
ur´gh.
2:36 pm
joym999
Oh wait, forget that past tense thing.
2:36 pm
hokie carla
both are past tense!
2:36 pm
MotherOwl
Argh, but thanks
2:38 pm
joym999
is the CY6 related to the CY7s?
2:40 pm
MotherOwl
I have the horticultural gr7 .. what am I missing?
2:40 pm
joym999
Well, you will gr5 when you finally find the other gr7.
2:43 pm
joym999
just double checking -- there are TWO ha7s and TWO ro7s?
2:44 pm
joym999
Sorry I meant there are TWO ha6s and TWO ro6s?
2:45 pm
MotherOwl
I did, Joy :) THanks
2:45 pm
joym999
Also RH6??? WTF???
2:45 pm
hokie carla
the other ro6 I just typed in somehow
2:45 pm
joym999
LOL Motherowl
2:46 pm
hokie carla
we've had the RH6 before
2:47 pm
hokie carla
* butler * ashley wilkes
2:47 pm
hokie carla
(give or take a letter)
2:47 pm
joym999
I can't remember what I had for breakfast, let alone a weird word that's appeared here before.
2:50 pm
hokie carla
well, hopefully my clue was clear as mud
2:51 pm
joym999
I got the GWTW reference but I'm still not getting the word.
2:51 pm
MotherOwl
more muddy than clear to me ... but then I do not know the books/films ... you allude to, so no wonder.
2:52 pm
MotherOwl
but if it's the rh6, I got it ;)
2:52 pm
joym999
time for me to get back to work. see ya later
2:52 pm
hokie carla
most of butler + option word, either **
3:03 pm
MotherOwl
Eww greek and hebrew letters, I don't like.
3:36 pm
MotherOwl
And I give up. 35 words missing., but time for bed. Have fun.

Had a strange dream last night. There was a dog running around my balcony. I had to call the super to come get him. There were also a pile of Cheetos there.
4:12 pm
MollyL
Didn't have to wait too long for gas. But there was a line and the first station I stopped at was all out.
4:12 pm
sukee
If you saw my balcony, you would see no one can climb up on it :)
4:13 pm
MollyL
Dogs and Cheetos and balconies...oh my
4:13 pm
hurshy
i bet a cat could, but maybe not a dog
4:14 pm
sukee
It would be dicey for a cat too. The balcony rails are not flat and my balcony does not go into another one
4:14 pm
sukee
Anyway, I'm moving to a ground floor apartment next month.
4:15 pm
sukee
Not that that is related :)
4:15 pm
hurshy
just depends on the motivation. i once attempted to have both cats and parakeets at my house. i hung the parakeet cage higher than i had ever seen any of my cats jump, but with the increased motivation of live birds there, marty jumped that high and was holding onto the cage with his claws. that didn't do any real harm but it must have scared the birds tremendously
4:17 pm
sukee
One of my cats has decided he is a aerialist now. Since I'm emptying shelves he has taken to leaping onto them. One he jumps from the top of the fridge from the top of the refrigerator which is about 4 feet away and in another room.
4:17 pm
hurshy
they are pretty amazing
4:18 pm
sukee
Sorry, jumps onto a bookcase.
4:18 pm
sukee
I always worry he will hurt himself.
4:18 pm
hurshy
odds are low, i think
4:18 pm
sukee
But, now they will have a window where they can watch birds and squirrels all day.
4:18 pm
hurshy
well that's always fun
4:20 pm
sukee
The same cat also snuck out into the hallway last month and I didn't notice he was gone until someone came to my door 3 hours later and asked if I had a grey cat.
4:22 pm
periwinkle
"I can see clearly now"
4:22 pm
hurshy
one of my first cats got out one time and i didn't notice immediately. she got out an exterior door, on the second floor, and down a staircase. when i went out on the landing and called her, she IMMEDIATELY came tearing around the corner of the house and up the stairs, like she knew she wasn't supposed to be outside! later in life she did not WANT to go outside. and in a place i lived with a balcony, when the weather started to turn nice, i put her out on the balcony and she just turned around and came back in. at that point she was like "NO. i am an INDOOR CAT."
4:23 pm
sukee
Well, he hasn't been so eager to get back out in the hallway.
4:24 pm
hurshy
my rilla (in my picture) would not go out of any door unless she KNEW it was allowed. she is such a little angel.
4:25 pm
sukee
She's so cute
4:25 pm
hurshy
at the vet one time the tech was about to open the door to the back area and looking to see where rilla was, in case she might dash out, and i was like oh you don't have to worry about HER
4:25 pm
hurshy
she is the most cutest most darlingest little wee thing
4:27 pm
hurshy
she was kidnapped by a bird of prey on her first or second day of life, wiggled free, fell, was seen by someone driving nearby, and brought to the animal shelter that happened to be on that very same road, where a vet tech took her home to bottle feed and foster until she was old enough to be adopted, so, she's a bit of a miracle kitten as well
4:28 pm
hurshy
Miss Marilla Roo the Miracle Kitten
4:28 pm
hurshy
is the long version of her name
4:29 pm
hurshy
and Opie is King Opie the Magnificent (alt., Caesar Opie)

Sounds like it :) I just kept the names my two had, Damon and Tobey. I think they were named after Matt Damon and Tobey McGuire.
4:31 pm
sukee
Tobey is actually Tobey CatGuire
4:31 pm
hurshy
oh i definitely like to name mine myself
4:32 pm
hurshy
the one i mentioned who escaped was Mitten. i had originally tried to name her Pepper, as she was a grey tabby, but she was my first one and i just kept saying "Mitten Kitten" all the time so that ended up being her name. i was afraid when i got a second cat, what if i called them all that?! but i didn't.
4:33 pm
sukee
Tried to change my icon to a picture of the two but I can't see it.
4:33 pm
hurshy
so i had Mitten, and Cinder, who was a dark grey, and Marty. Marty was named after Marty McFly from back to the future because that was how his personality struck me.
4:34 pm
hurshy
aw, i can see it when i click on it!
4:34 pm
sukee
Well, I have to go. Great talking cat with you.
