9:38 am
rururocks
nice grid today. just challenging enough
9:39 am
hokie carla
there's gotta be some weird ones, though
9:40 am
BzznBea
maybe the V?
9:40 am
moolingwa
if you can have doglegs, why can't you have cowlegs?
9:41 am
hokie carla
well, the v is weird, but I found that easy enough. talking about the 19 I can't find.
9:41 am
hokie carla
well, cows have cowlegs
9:41 am
moolingwa
they do right...or am I confusing them with a different animal?
9:42 am
moolingwa
and beef stew could be alternatively referred to as cowder
9:44 am
moolingwa
and apparently enable is not a fan of Anthony Burgess, otherwise droogs would be acceptable
9:44 am
moolingwa
back to the cow theme....to remove cattle from a property is obviously decow
9:46 am
rururocks
a rancher can be called a cowlord
9:46 am
EmaMaria
cowgel for the vain cattle
9:46 am
hokie carla
pretty sure I tried cowder earlier
9:46 am
moolingwa
or maybe if guardians of the galaxy settled down on a ranch
9:47 am
moolingwa
oh yes, got to keep those cowbouffants tamed Ema
9:47 am
hokie carla
these are all excellent suggestions
9:47 am
rururocks
if they don't have gel they get cowlicks anyway
9:47 am
moolingwa
and then there's the cowrefs at the rodeo
9:48 am
hokie carla
just fyi - coofer is a real word at virginia tech, or it was when I was there. not sure about kids these days.
9:48 am

what's a coofer - stands by for pigeon joke
9:49 am

a great book on bovines is called a good cowread
9:49 am

cow's have a lot of history you know, there's quite a bit of cowlore

a coofer at VT is an old test you get from someone who took the class already to help you study

I was making breakfast, so I found nothing.
10:04 am
moolingwa
I could use some breakfast
10:04 am
hokie carla
I guess this is more brunch since it's 11am
10:04 am
moolingwa
supper used to be lunch I think
10:05 am
moolingwa
so it's all pretty arbitrary
10:05 am
hokie carla
in appalachia dinner was lunch. so you had breakfast, dinner, then supper
10:05 am
moolingwa
ah...well there you go
10:06 am
moolingwa
maybe that's what I'm remembering, and appalachia just held onto that while the rest of the world moved on
10:06 am
hokie carla
my grandmother always called it that. my parents may have when I was a kid but I think it's pretty much died out.
10:06 am
moolingwa
oh, an F
10:06 am
hokie carla
there was a lot of that in appalachia!
10:07 am

we called lunch lunch, but we called dinner tea in NZ

another one my grandmother used a lot was "directly" for a measure of time, as in I'll be over directly. I like to use it occasionally and see who is confused.
10:09 am

if you were in a three-legged race, you'd each have a leg, plus one shared coleg
10:29 am
hokie carla
what if you put the cows in the 3 legged race, you'd have cowleg colegs
10:30 am
hokie carla
wow, could not see that O
10:30 am
hokie carla
I usually get that one
10:30 am
moolingwa
and then you gave the cow's bird feet,then you'd have cowleg coleg crowlegs
10:30 am
hokie carla
any FE words?

two other 5s to be specific

11:11 am
moolingwa
to be fair, I bought my wife a sewing machine, a serger and more recently a knitting machine, all as presents
11:11 am
hokie carla
well, they all do different things. serger (overlocker for you non-US), coverstitch, and a straight stitch. I could quilt with that one if I wanted but I have a lot of clothes planned that I can do with coverstitch and serger.
11:12 am
hokie carla
oh, what is a knitting machine?
11:12 am

it's amazing what our brains can retain and for how long. just last night i was thinking of Keiko, a Star Trek character who married Miles O'Brien, because this meme of the two of them has been getting a lot of use lately, and i was like, what was her maiden name? and i thought, "Ishikawa" and I haven't thought about that fact in who knows how many years but when I checked, I was right!
11:41 am

not all of dickens is dark, you have to choose carefully. you might like nicholas nickleby and our mutual friend. and of course christmas carol isn't dark!
