I think I've finally recovered from the big expedition to Connecticut, and Malka is wonderful. I think she feels better already. As she is still radioactive (to a minimal degree) I'm to keep a certain distance from her. Ridiculous; she is velcroed to my side.

Just read in this am's paper *climbing on bandwagon* that the Karla Holmoka movie is being released next week. I wish it had never been made, but since that was allowed, I hope the public and media boycotts it and that it dies a quick and sudden death!
I can't imagine how the families of those two murdered girls are feeling at this point ---- to have relive that torment after 12 years because Hollywood decided it needed another horror on the screen.

12 years ago in Ottawa, Karla Homolka and her boyfriend, Paul Bernardo, abducted two teenage girls, abused them, tortured them and finally murdered them. Karla got off with 12 years for turning prosecutor's evidence -- Paul got life. The girl's families are still living in Ottawa and protested the making of the movie, but the courts ruled that Hollywood must have its 'free speech'. I can't imagine what it would be like to be in the parents' shoes!

2:28 pm
EasternBlue

aknitter - yup.
2:28 pm
MissyMe

Youre better than me, Anj. I'm not very successful on Nightmare level. How many times have you gone through the game and have you managed to build a complete armor outfit with the special armor?
2:28 pm

aknitter Both my sons are notorious for their one-word answers to any and all questions. lol I think it's a "guy" thing
2:33 pm
Anj

Missy, i've got all unique stuff but it's mis-matched. No one set of gear like Civerb's vestements etc. It's a pretty strong character, just unexpectedly nobbled sometimes which adds a bit of a twist to the whole staying alive strategy lol : ) I was just wondering if you had found any quick way to level up...
2:33 pm
Tim

does anyone have the ta 5/16, and or the ta 6/27??
2:35 pm
aknitter

not yet tim
2:36 pm
MissyMe

Anj I just go in and out of town over and over so the monsters spawn again. I usually head for the cave/tunnel/dungeon/house areas because the monsters are harder in those places and I don't bother with the "main" bosses. By leaving them alone this allows the others in the area to respawn as I go out and go back in.
2:36 pm

2:41 pm
MissyMe

Anj the game advances when you kill the boses so I usually leave them alone until I'm ready to move on. I really don't know any other way to build up. I do use the special moves like the whirlwind on my fighter to make it go faster.

8:11 pm
Eva

Thanks EB! Now how about the third ar5/10, the one just before the 5/12?
8:12 pm
EasternBlue

3rd ar 5/10

it's the second line in the grid...
8:13 pm
Eva

I have that one. It's the one after that and before the one that ends in ic.
8:14 pm
EvaNadine

eva -- same beginning with the ic ending
8:16 pm
Eva

Eva I have that one. I think, from Brandyjack's list, that Im missing the one right before that. But maybe I have it wrong. Anyway, I'm definitely missing an ar5/10.
8:16 pm
EasternBlue

latin plural of 'place" (it's your ar 4/4)

or
a + 'not fake'

8:17 pm
EasternBlue

eva - are you talking to yourself?? 8 D
8:18 pm
Eva

EB-There seem to be Eva clones on line right now. I have that tone too. Are there 3 ar5/10's? Or just 2?
8:19 pm
EvaNadine

funny story about that!
my BF came over after work one day + i was in the shower...when i got out, he asked me if there was someone in there with me. of course there wasnt, and he was like "wow, you were totally having a conversation in there."
apparently i was talking to myself, but i have like NO recollection of it...

sorta makes me wonder if that was a first or if i do that a lot + no one has ever told me before...hehe
8:20 pm
mrpresident

evan... I have a similar story on memory loss!!
Mine is worse though...
8:20 pm
harpjane

eva-there are five ar 5/10's total. There are three in a row.
8:21 pm
EasternBlue

there are 5 ar 5/10

1) latin plural of ar 4/4
2) a + 'not fake'
3) plural of 'places'
4) same beginning with "ic" ending
5) paintings/sculpture + "A" vowel + a "L"etter
8:21 pm
harpjane

isn't that normal? I've been talking to myself for years. At least that way the listener is someone who cares about what I'm saying!
8:21 pm
harpjane

LA 5 anyone? My last word. I almost hate to finish this short one.
8:22 pm

8:24 pm
Eva

Okay guys, Im getting very confused (doesn't take much these days)...the one I have with the "ic" ending is and ar5/12 - is there also one like that which is an ar5/10?
8:24 pm
mrpresident

I hadn't been sleeping and my doctor gave me sleeping tablets and I took 2 of them, lay down in bed and as far as I knew, went to sleep.....
For the next four hours, I cooked two gourmet main meals then seduced my husand, then danced the night away to MTV!!.... and I recall non of it!

8:27 pm
joey

congrats, harpjane
8:27 pm
EasternBlue

eva - oops!

There are 6 ar 5's (5 for 10, 1 for 12)
8:27 pm

Nope- I sear I'm not just being difficult! The grid clearly shows that I'm missing an a, and I semed to have all the other kinds of ar's.
8:28 pm
EvaNadine

8:28 pm
EasternBlue

8:33 pm
Eva

Okay guys, thank you so much for hanging in there with me. I have rechecked BJ's list and I am missing one of the 3 ar5/10's which are in a clump together. I have these two from that clump:

a + not fake
the plural of the 4/4 space

what is the other one in that threesome?
8:33 pm
EasternBlue

mr pres - I bet he was!! that would be pretty scary tho'!!!
8:34 pm
EvaNadine

before those -- "space" plus vowel on end
8:34 pm
EasternBlue

eva -

it's the first one...
it's the Latin plural form....
8:34 pm
mrpresident

eastern, it was scary... scary that I cooked, danced and seduced my husband!! I don't do that!!!
8:35 pm
Eva

Thankyou, thank you, thank you.....got caught in an ar vortex there for a while.
8:36 pm
mrpresident

My husband suggested I take the tablets again just to make sure it was the tablets that were giving me memory loss, and I did the same thing again!!
He took full and complete advantage of it too!!

Eva

how about the la5/10 & la4/4 which precede the 6/18 & 7/24?
8:40 pm
mrpresident

eastern... I did... my reasoning was: it was either me or the pills. I had to know if I was losing my mind or the tablets were the problem!

mr. pres - or in your hubby's estimate...the 'gift'!!!!

the la 5 - sounds like a guy's name (think ____, Moe & Curly)...take the first 3 letters + double vowEl

the la 4 - starts the same + a d"I"ffernt letter
8:43 pm
markbowers7

maybe he would cook u dinner, give u a footrub, hand u a couple credit cards and tell u to go get yourself something...
8:43 pm

Mark -
he'd end up doing all the chores around the house - painting, mowing the lawn, taking out the garbage...

my brother also had a friend growing up whose name, no lie, was James James...first and last name.

9:50 pm
JoJoFunLvg

Eastermblue: Well, hate to admit this but 2 years ago I had my 40th HS reunion. Went to only one before, my 20th. And lo and behold, all the cheerleaders and such, looked older and fat. I am not fat, but not thin either, but I was proud of myself.

JB: Yes it is always hard to have your team lose. Believe me I know that. I understand that you have grown up with the Patriots, but now that the Patriots are out (Pleeze, Patirots have won 2 superbowls) can't you just put a bit of crossed fingers in for the Seahawks???
11:15 pm
JBsAnno

GGGOOOOOOOOO Seahawks!!!
(my high school team was the Blue Hawks, so this is a wholeheartedly felt cheer!)
11:16 pm
JoJoFunLvg

Thx JB. We will need it ~~a lot.
11:16 pm
renfield

ok - so who will be playing in the superbowl?
11:18 pm
torgone

ren - A whole bunch of big guys.
11:18 pm
JBsAnno

Don't know yet, ren.

Um,, wait - yes, yes I do! JoJo and I predict the Seahawks and the Colts!

Uh oh, I'm in trouble now...I want Peyton to win, but I like the Hawks!
11:18 pm
JoJoFunLvg

Ren: Don't know until tomorrow's games, and the next weeks's games, but remember "Any given Sunday, the greatest team can lose to the worst team". Any given Sunday!

Hi, Tor!
How is your icon a villain?

renfield

torgone

I'm still stuck on a couple days ago when it was comics. Mr. Natural was never a villain, as fae as I know . .
11:22 pm
JBsAnno

Oh, I understand. My icons are only accessible at home, so if I ever jump in from work, I may not be up to date.
Speaking of which, what's tomorrow's theme - anyone know yet?
11:22 pm
torgone

ren - How about this: "The two teams that win next week" ?
11:23 pm
torgone

I have 2 words left, both fa's . ..
11:23 pm
renfield

ok torg...i don't know if i've ever watched a superbowl....world series yes...yankees...YES!!!
11:24 pm

FA 5?
11:24 pm
JoJoFunLvg

JB: You can route for any team you want. I like Peyton Manning as well, a great competitor. EXCEPT, if he competes with the Seahawks! HA! Don't know if the Seahawks will go all the way to the SB, but I will be routing if they do. Us (glub, glub) water soaked Seattlelites, do deserve some enjoyment, right??
11:24 pm
JBsAnno

I'm just getting to the f's now as well, Torgone!
11:25 pm
renfield

fa 5 = fa 4 - plural (starts like to go a long way)
11:26 pm
JBsAnno

LOL, JoJo - isn't that what Starbucks is for?
BTW, if my husband had his druthers, we'd be living in the Pacific NW - he just LOVES rainy weather.
11:29 pm
JoJoFunLvg

JB: PNW is not so bad. It has fishing, clam digging, camping, hunting, boating, etc., lots to do. And the summers are, or should I say have been, hot, humid, and beautiful. And it is always an adventure around here.
11:29 pm
renfield

ok mab let's try this
fa 5 = fa* to go a long way + what are feet are attached to - g
11:31 pm
JoJoFunLvg

JP: Starbucks owner (Schultz) owns the Sonics not the Seahawks. The retired Microsoft owner (Paul Allen) owns the Seahawks.
