hokie carla

I have a feeling I'm going to miss a lot of plurals today

7:46 am

hokie carla

this is a tough grid, I don't care what (I imagine) ruru says

7:50 am

car.eeyore

I just started but I'm finding the first 2 columns tougher than they look.

7:52 am

car.eeyore

phantom: acumen

7:54 am

hokie carla

I definitely have a lot of phantoms. also, not saying acumen is there, but several words I thought were phantoms actually are there in another direction.

7:55 am

car.eeyore

I always try my phantoms first! :)

7:56 am

hokie carla

it's a good practice to keep from typing actual words in the chat

7:56 am

car.eeyore

LOL...I try!

7:57 am

hokie carla

I spy a LOTR character

8:00 am

hokie carla

I spy a play that daniel radcliffe was in

8:07 am

MollyL

Those bottom 2 t's are nasty

8:07 am

car.eeyore

Oooh...thank you for the heads up...not quite there yet.

8:08 am

MollyL

The play is Equus. Don't see a Lord of The Rings character.

8:10 am

hokie carla

minor character - think also horses

8:11 am

hokie carla

somehow I found the bottom 2 t's without looking. not even made it to that row yet.

8:11 am

MollyL

Eomer, had to look it up. I can't keep track of all the weird ass names in that story.

8:11 am

hokie carla

and I forgot to give you âœ…âœ…âœ…ðŸ´ðŸ´ðŸ´

8:12 am

hokie carla

âœ…âœ…âœ…

8:12 am

hokie carla

sister Eowyn

8:12 am

hokie carla

how do you even go about looking that up when you don't know what's in the grid?

8:13 am

MollyL

Are you one of those people who has read the books a hundred times and gets dressed up and goes to conventions?

8:13 am

car.eeyore

I got those T's no problem! :)

8:13 am

MollyL

You do a Google search on horse man Lord of The Rings

8:13 am

MollyL

*Hands out two Smarty Pants t-shirts

8:14 am

hokie carla

no, have read the books once but seen the movies quite a few times

8:15 am

car.eeyore

Thank you, Molly :)

8:15 am

hokie carla

I love me some Karl Urban as Eomer

8:15 am

car.eeyore

Ok, made first pass through, have one of everything, and 132 left :|

8:15 am

car.eeyore

Love me some Karl Urban

8:16 am

hokie carla

and glad my hint was helpful

8:16 am

hokie carla

car, I said that here before and someone said he was ugly

8:17 am

car.eeyore

:P no way

8:17 am

MollyL

Well there are people who think Mick Jager is sexy so it takes all kinds.

8:18 am

hokie carla

yeah, that is whack

8:19 am

MollyL

Karl Urban is okay. I wouldn't kick him out of bed.

8:21 am

hokie carla

okay, this N seems way worse than the T beside it

8:22 am

hokie carla

91 left after first pass. no HOET because of the N.

8:23 am

hokie carla

phantom neutron and now I'm singing pointer sisters

8:24 am

car.eeyore

All this talk of Karl Urban's hotness was too much for my laptop and I had to do a hard reboot!

8:24 am

rururocks

oh if guys were talking like that in the chat.. there'd be hell to pay :D

8:24 am

hokie carla

hey, molly's the one talking about not kicking guys out of bed ðŸ¤£

8:25 am

hokie carla

ruru, can you give me a hint on the N? I have ne4 only.

8:25 am

hokie carla

ha, found them

8:25 am

hokie carla

HOET!

8:25 am

rururocks

8:26 am

hokie carla

I peri'd that, sorry

8:27 am

hokie carla

last col gray!

8:27 am

car.eeyore

Nice!

8:28 am

hokie carla

this H is a mystery, only one way to go, so how do I still have 7 more words

8:29 am

hokie carla

oh, just found a 7/8 there

8:43 am

hokie carla

well, time to get ready for tennis. 66 left for later.

Good Morning cybernan

saanichcat

hello there nan

9:01 am

cybernan

hi saanich -- hear you are getting some nice warm temps.

9:04 am

saanichcat

and lots of good rain too, it's been a great start to winter. How about where you are?

9:05 am

cybernan

cold for the last couple of weeks. Lots of rain though.

9:06 am

cybernan

there was an st 7-8 and a 9 called last night, but not seeing them

9:07 am

saanichcat

tummy stuff

9:09 am

cybernan

ty - couldn't see that last twist even though I was looking for it. Thought it was a phantom.

9:13 am

rururocks

it takes guts to find it nan

9:15 am

cybernan

oh, don't start - too early in the morning for puns :)

9:15 am

rururocks

sorry, I do tend to bladder on with puns

9:16 am

cybernan

(you can add that to your groan count)

9:16 am

rururocks

thanks.. it's been a rough year for groans

9:16 am

cybernan

I've been sleeping in, so missed you the last couple of weeks.

9:18 am

rururocks

I've also been lurking a lot not feeling like chatting

9:20 am

cybernan

been following the news with some concern - hope it is just the press sensationalizing things. I don't understand how a man convicted of fraud can be nominated and run for political office of any sort, let alone president.

9:21 am

rururocks

I completely understand. it's total insanity here right now.

9:21 am

mael

hello

9:22 am

rururocks

the religious right seems to overlook his sinful flaws as a human being.

9:22 am

mael

I don't think anyone really understands how it's possible without losing all faith in sanity

9:22 am

mattygroves

I like this headline from BBC News' website: Judge asks Trump to stop with the speeches

9:22 am

saanichcat

hi mael

9:22 am

mael

hey saanich, how are you?

9:22 am

mattygroves

I can only imagine the exasperation in the Judge's voice

9:22 am

cybernan

all I can say is if he wins the nomination and is allowed to run I will be selling off all my US holdings.

9:25 am

mael

I might actually head back to Europe, not that Europe is doing MUCH better these days

9:25 am

rururocks

he's winning the nomination for sure. Unfortunately he's leading in the polls as Biden is too old to run (in many people's opinions)

9:25 am

rururocks

although Trump isn't a spring chicken either.

9:25 am

mael

I don't believe those polls, ru

9:25 am

cybernan

I thought Biden said he wasn't going to run.

9:25 am

mael

there's a LOT of manufacture horse racing

9:26 am

Marjetta

Trump is only 3 year younger than Biden.

9:26 am

rururocks

here's hoping mael.. i hope it's just an error

9:26 am

mael

Biden is running, as far as we know

9:26 am

mael

can't see a viable alternative to biden either

9:26 am

Marjetta

riot

9:26 am

Marjetta

riots

9:26 am

mael

hah, that is a viable alternative yes ;)

9:26 am

Marjetta

sorry

9:26 am

doseffing

... besides Harris ... is there any possible Democratic alternative ?

9:27 am

cybernan

sounds like you are in the same boat we are -- you have to vote for the least of all evils.

9:27 am

saanichcat

Biden is healthier in mind and body than trump will ever be

9:27 am

mael

I'd happily vote for Harris but a big contingent wouldn't for... many reasons

9:28 am

mael

agreed, saanich. the age thing wouldn't be an issue if the press hadn't been pushing it as an issue

9:28 am

cybernan

the glass ceiling is still there?

9:28 am

rururocks

there are Democrats who could run, but they don't have the national presence to run. It's insane that the Democratic party hasn't pushed some candidates forward.. no one wants to take it from Biden.

9:28 am

saanichcat

and trump has pushed that

9:28 am

mael

amongst others, nan. yeah.

9:28 am

Marjetta

I want Katie Porter to run!

9:28 am

rururocks

I don't think I'd vote for Harris... she's too far to the left

9:28 am

doseffing

... that's what I feared

9:29 am

mael

which is ridiculous because Trump has pushed any number of absolutely insane narratives that shouldn't be given the time of day

9:29 am

rururocks

it's his malignant narcissism that continues this lie. And his cult follows it

9:29 am

saanichcat

agreed mael

9:30 am

cybernan

I would think that too far left is better than extremist right if that is the only choice.

9:31 am

mael

any day, nan

9:31 am

doseffing

... it's the one skill that he has ... he is the best user of the internet ... ... and the more times he says something the more some people will accept that it must be correct ... unfortunately

9:31 am

cybernan

certainly not voting is not an option.

9:33 am

rururocks

I would vote for Satan before I'd vote for Trump

9:33 am

doseffing

... yeah ... but you're supposed to be voting for something as apposed to voting against something else

9:33 am

mael

voting against something else works in a pinch

9:34 am

Shirlockc

hey speaking of, trump is in the grid, id5

9:34 am

BzznBea

ha!

9:34 am

mael

I've voted for candidates to the right of my ideal political stance all my adult life because the alternative is terrifying. Holding back my vote for the perfect candidate to appear is nonsense

9:34 am

mael

hah

9:35 am

doseffing

... sure ... but it's frustrating ... ...

9:35 am

mael

absolutely frustrating

9:36 am

rururocks

especially this important election mael... we're on our way to Nazi Germany if this goes badly

9:36 am

mael

but I come from a multi party country and let me tell you that is no better

9:36 am

Shirlockc

the closest i ever came to voting FOR is obama

9:36 am

cybernan

agreed, mael

9:36 am

doseffing

... scary thought isn't it ....

9:36 am

Shirlockc

lately it's been all voting against, sad but true

9:37 am

cybernan

only ad vantage is the minority government keeps everyone in check

9:39 am

mael

unless the minority government is like the current US congress then good luck

9:40 am

cybernan

I think that's what we are looking at after our next election

9:44 am

mael

I'm heading out to go to a meeting, chin up! I do have faith that sanity will prevail

I said just this morning on FB that I wasn't expecting much from Biden to start with, I've always thought of him as Obama's court jester, in a way - but I've also always felt that he means well, at least, and will take advice from those who know more. I don't feel that Dump45 either means well OR listens to good advice.

10:09 am

rbud

ok, done with political commentary on my part at least. ;)

it's far easier to snark (in my case) than to be thoughtful in commenting -- so apologies in advance if I'm too snark and dark

Hi all. Any clues for the 9?

10:25 am

MollyL

I haven't been able to vote FOR in a very long time and I will not vote AGAINST.

10:26 am

Book Doctor Gwen

left column done, woot

10:38 am

mkg

I find it sad that i also vote for the candidate i feel is the better choice but not a good choice. I did think clinton was a good president. I also voted for GW Bush but he then changed course and i regretted it. I told my kids it was sad that they were always choosing from second rate candidates and not wonderful people. I happen to like Nikki Haley but i am told she doesnt stand a chance. Very sad.

10:38 am

mkg

Anyway it is sad to say that the brightest and best are not going into politics anymore. That is my firm belief.

marm could also be like ma'am, having an apostrophe with then makes it hard for a dictionary to deal with

11:54 am

72 Temple Owl

started at 7:45

11:54 am

bichon

Didn't the girls in "Little Women" call their mother "marmie"

11:54 am

11:54 am

72 Temple Owl

bye

11:54 am

penquis
