hokie carla
phantom glissando
7:46 am
MollyL
They named a space probe after Oleg Cassini?
7:47 am
penquis
it's the name of a plain on the moon....perhaps the name predates the designer....
7:49 am
hokie carla
just took winston out. only 66 right now, supposed to get up to 91 today. guess we better go for a walk now! TTFN
7:50 am
mael
Cassini was an astronomer
7:50 am
mael
in the 1600s
7:51 am
MollyL
And now stars wear his clothes. That works.
7:52 am
penquis
i thought he looked old when he was famous, but not that old... ;o)
7:53 am
MollyL
I'm still wondering where Carla came up with glissando
7:54 am
penquis
the musical term?....was that her phantom?...i thought of it, too, when i was first looking at the grid...
7:54 am
rururocks
glissando sounds like an Italian drag queen
7:55 am
penquis
LOL....or a gigolo....
7:57 am
mael
never, glissando is a masculine word. :)
7:57 am
mael
it means to glide
7:57 am

8:00 am
BzznBea
Pen, how do you feel about the outcome of the US Open?
8:01 am
penquis
i am not a big Joker fan....the pressure got to him....Medvedev played really well...
8:02 am
penquis
it seemed that everyone thought it was a done deal before it started...except for Medvedev... ;o).... to be honest, I was so tired of hearing about the calendar Grand Slam...
8:03 am
BzznBea
I was tired of hearing of it as well. But, I was in the camp that knew he would win. What do I know...
8:04 am
rururocks
who won?
8:04 am
BzznBea
And I was for Fernandez all along, but I really liked Radacanu.
8:04 am
penquis
they said he was tired and played more than Medvedev.....but i looked it up...he played three more sets and no five setters....his tiredness was mental, I think....the stress was enormous...
8:04 am
penquis
Djokovich (sp?)....
8:05 am
penquis
sorry, he is the one who lost...Medvedev won....
8:07 am
penquis
the women's final was a lot of fun....
8:10 am
penquis
i liked both of the women who played in the final....Radacanu was amazing all through the qualifiers and the tournament....didn't lose one set....unreal!
8:12 am
dan2bit
she had to win 3 matches just to get IN to the tournament. hasn't been done in the "Open" era
8:13 am
penquis
yes, she won 20 straight sets....
8:14 am
penquis
it surprised me a little that she didn't have a mental lapse in the final, given her anxiety attack at Wimbledon...
8:20 am
BzznBea
Maybe they worked on that after Wimbeldon
8:21 am
penquis
must have....she handled it all so well....
8:23 am
BzznBea
I felt sorry for Fernandez. I think her presssure came from her family.
8:24 am
penquis
perhaps....she did seem to be very stressed in the final...her little speech at the awards ceremony was very nice...
8:24 am
penquis
and she had one of the few nice outfits!....
8:25 am
BzznBea
The women's double team had the same outfits as Leylah. Maybe different colors.
8:26 am
penquis
yes, i saw that....i was happy they broadcasted both the men's and the women's doubles finals....
8:30 am

Good morning everyone. Another small grid. Perfect for my small attention span.

lol. I've heard spill the tea a lot.
11:49 am
joym999
what's the stat on that lone A?
11:50 am
joym999
oh, right.
11:51 am
MollyL
People just aren't seeing that one today. Or da6
11:51 am
hokie carla
I can't find the lone i
11:51 am
hokie carla
hmm, I don't have da6. is that from the bottom? I have 0 bottom d's.
11:51 am
MollyL
I think that is io6
11:52 am
hokie carla
of course, thanks
11:52 am
MollyL
Yes. It isn't a weird word. Just laid out in a way in which we do not read.
11:52 am
hokie carla
can't see it until someone points it out and then it's right there.
11:52 am
hokie carla
<-----not a mental giant
11:55 am

still not seeing a da6
11:55 am

I have no idea what those 4 C words could be
11:55 am
hokie carla
you're so money, joy
11:56 am

There is a pretty normal di7 that is hard to see too
11:57 am
hokie carla
geez, there's a de6
11:57 am
hokie carla
yes, ca4
11:57 am
joym999
Oh, doh!
11:58 am
MollyL
It's a clue. My clue is one of them is Spanish
11:58 am
joym999
I think I need some more tea
11:58 am
joym999
for some reason I thought they all had to start with CH
11:58 am
hokie carla
I still need 1 c but have the spanish one, and the almost designer one
11:59 am
MollyL
Hence the problem, since none of them start with CH
11:59 am
MollyL
You need another ca6
11:59 am
joym999
At least it's not my imagination that making a CH word is impossible.
12:01 pm
MollyL
I was hoping chassi was some variation of the dance move, but no dice.
12:03 pm
joym999
I would have defined the "almost designer one" as being plural gambling places.
12:03 pm
MollyL
Carla, I found out something amusing about SMASH.
12:03 pm
hokie carla
do tell
12:03 pm
MollyL
I always used to say that McPhee must have been sleeping with someone to get that part.
12:04 pm
MollyL
Turns out, she was. The director, Michael Morris.
12:05 pm
MollyL
Which is kind of funny since in the story it was Ivy who was sleeping with the director, not Karen.
12:06 pm
hokie carla
ha! there's a de6/7
12:06 pm
hokie carla
yeah, but I think it was (is?) way more common than we know of.
12:09 pm
MollyL
Probably. And McPhee and Morris were not at all discreet. And his wife took him back (fool)
12:10 pm
joym999
I just started on the Ds. I see a DE6 but it has no 7, I'm pretty sure.
12:10 pm
hokie carla
there are at least 2 de6
12:11 pm
joym999
got the 6,7
12:11 pm
hokie carla
oh, a da7
12:13 pm
joym999
please tell me more about this da7, carla.
12:14 pm
hokie carla

12:14 pm
hokie carla
a sharp dressed man?
12:16 pm
rbud
thanks for that, carla
12:16 pm
joym999
wait a minute...you can't just adverb that word
12:16 pm
MollyL
A lion that grows in the grass averbially
12:18 pm
MollyL
It is a clumsy word and personally, I would never use it.
12:19 pm
joym999
are there any QUE words?
12:19 pm
hokie carla

not bad, but not as good as many of the kettle style chips

we have Utz pretzels here in Illinois, I love the butter ones. Not sure about chips, haven't noticed for sure.

Molly I tried the link below and the other in sprites' profile but neither worked for me. I typed them into my browser

they have to be unzipped, don't they? They download as a zip file for me, anyway.
1:22 pm

but where did it go for me to unzip it?
1:22 pm
rbud
Molly's link downloaded fine for me, but showed as a zip file. I didn't unzip it. Have ever used expert, so I *AM* no expert, heehee.
1:23 pm
rbud
does it say "show in file folder"? Mine does, but this is an old model laptop. Should maybe be in "downloads"?
1:23 pm

*never used expert, I meant.
1:24 pm

he does a song called "Adagio" also I see. based on Albinoni's Adagio in G Minor. I recognize it because back in 1974 Renaissance did a song called So Cold is Being Lonely based on the same piece :-)
3:42 pm

The lead singer for that band has an amazing range also. Annie Haslam.
3:43 pm

The link to Babble expert is not a zip file. I would try FIrefox. Is it only Expert you are having trouble with? If so, I would try emailing Lickety.

11:53 pm

UGH.... YOU POOR DARLING.
11:54 pm
Jacula
Until I know for sure, Rose, if the double AZ vaccine has boosted my immune stystem so much that I am overreacting to normal allergens, I'm a bit cautious about having the 3rd, the booster.
11:55 pm
grannyrose
I PLAN TO HAVE PFIZER AS MY BOOSTER. CAN YOU DO THE SAME ?
11:57 pm
Jacula
Perhaps I should just keep on pretty much shielding and not going out without a mask into places where other people are? Having said that, I will have to attend a family funeral within the next 2 weeks.
11:58 pm
Jacula
I had the AZ vaccines, so will have to have same for booster here in UK, I think. Oddly enough, ex bro-in-law who had AZ in Canada is not allowed in to UK now on that.
11:58 pm
grannyrose
I AM DOUBLE MASKING EVEN THOUGH I AM DOUBLE VAXXED. I WEAR A TRIPLE LAYER COTTON, WITH A DISPOSABLE OVER THE TOP.
11:59 pm
Jacula
Rose - I have always used blue and white medical masks.
11:59 pm
Jacula
The very same masks every NHS place wants you to wear if you go there.
