when my oldest son played hs soccer there was a noone on the team that scored a lot, and one time when they were live tweeting we saw "no one scored a goal" and we still joke about that. (maybe you had to be there)
9:37 am
hurshy
no, you didn't have to be there, that is funny
9:39 am
hurshy
add that to the list of reasons not to use autocorrect
9:40 am
hurshy
if rolin were to play today she would get the tiara
9:41 am

9:41 am
MollyL
Carla is saving it for her boyfriend
9:42 am
hurshy
top row grey!
9:42 am
hokie carla
still need 2 T's
9:42 am
hurshy
they are all 4s and 5s except one plural that is 6
9:44 am
hokie carla
of course it was the french one
9:44 am
hurshy
that was my last one too!
9:44 am
hurshy
is there an LY word?
9:45 am
hokie carla
then you should've known that was the one I needed 😜
9:45 am
hurshy
no, we often miss different ones
9:45 am
hokie carla
no LY - I did gray that on first pass which was nice
9:45 am
hokie carla
yeah, but I never know french ones
9:45 am
hurshy
i just need one more there
9:46 am
hurshy
ok *mental note: hokie doesn't know french ones*
9:46 am
hokie carla
my last L was a 4 that is most of the shower tool
9:46 am
hurshy
how could that be your last one when it has a plural?
9:47 am
hokie carla
hmm, good question
9:48 am
hokie carla
I am in the car tethered to my phone so had some lag earlier. prob entered it and it didn't take then when I tried it again it did.
9:48 am
BzznBea
Where you going, Carla?
9:49 am
hokie carla
mostly they are pairs, and the singlets are all 4s I think.
9:50 am
hokie carla
going home. just went to Jax FL for a couple of days. stayed with in-laws.
9:50 am
hokie carla
bea, wanna guess my last upper A?
9:50 am
hurshy
am4/6 perhaps
9:51 am
hokie carla
have that
9:51 am
hurshy
not that i would know, i am missing one as well
9:52 am
hurshy
oh, al5/14
9:52 am
rururocks
al5/14 is my guess
9:52 am
hokie carla
I think ruru's got it, thanks
9:52 am
BzznBea
that was my guess
9:53 am
hokie carla
didn't even see hurshy's 2nd guess. so weird how they just stick in the middle
9:53 am
rururocks
I speak hokie bea
9:54 am
BzznBea
That's a sad thing, ru.
9:55 am
hokie carla
how rude
9:56 am
rururocks
I just don't speak acronyms though
9:58 am
hokie carla
he just knows the limitations of my vocabulary
9:58 am
rururocks
no.. you miss words in patterns.. I've played this game with you a long time and those are the ones you miss
9:59 am
rururocks
your vocabulary is better than mine. I don't use portmanteau :D
9:59 am
hurshy
i can't even keep track of my own patterns, let alone someone else's
10:00 am
hokie carla
that is a good catch, I tend to miss a group of words all day and then see like 4 together later.
10:01 am
rururocks
<---observant
10:02 am
hokie carla
but I also miss words a lot with silent letters, such as the al5
10:03 am
rururocks
well anyway.. have a fun game everyone. I'm off to enjoy my day
10:03 am
hokie carla
bye ruru! have a good one
10:04 am
BzznBea

marksdolly
but when I think of the color, I think 1 word, seafoam
10:42 am
hokie carla
what's up with the N?
10:44 am
hokie carla
and the upper S? feels like I've exhausted all possibilities.
10:44 am
marksdolly
I still need S/s but have all the Ns
10:44 am
BzznBea
still need two on the s.
10:44 am
marksdolly
the n's are normal words
10:44 am
hokie carla
I need 4 S and 3 N
10:44 am
hokie carla
so I guess it's just me
10:45 am
BzznBea
working on the n...they have to be no's i would think
10:45 am
marksdolly
there is only 1 ni word the others are no s
10:45 am
hokie carla
ok, I have the ni. will look for no's
10:45 am

Oh, she probably meant wine
4:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Yes, wine.
4:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne
But where is the PB? Is it gone with the wind?
4:24 pm
MollyL
No one cares about it anymore. The new group is all into "I have 4 10 22 3 5 8"
4:26 pm
Kaplan the Magne
I care about it. It was fun. But something happened a while back when I PB'd somebody and she said we were like nazis, and it's only a game. And it was Nancyboy who was really into the PB and we all know how that turned out. Fools that we were.
4:29 pm
Kaplan the Magne
\It was silliness when the word clue was in the grid.
4:31 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Oh well, life goes on. I have influenza and asthma and am lightheaded and dizzy. Last week the doctor told me lower my salt intake and this week I am told to increase it. My maladies are at war at each other.
4:32 pm
Kaplan the Magne
OK for new people, the Penalty box was for using a grid word in the chat. The penalty was eased because of the cabana boys serving treats. Muffins in the morning.
4:35 pm
Kaplan the Magne
Well, I am alone in the PB and having my share of treats. It's lovely. you can join me.
