2:58 am

2:58 am
sprite

I thought the word was 'obsessed' ;)
2:58 am
FranMag

thanks sprite, still working on those ESs, but found the TEs!
2:59 am
sprite

The Es's are chemical words, Fran!
And finding the 8 was a result of one of my babble rules: try each ending on any word in the neighbourhood! :D
3:00 am
FranMag

good tips sprite, i need to work on finding those longer words. thanks.
3:01 am
FranMag

that es8/65 really is strange!
3:03 am
sprite

I looked up the def and beneath it are even stranger words with that Es5, lol. I will try and remember them too for another grid.
3:03 am
FranMag

i'm sure you already have the r8/45 and the s8/50?
3:03 am
libarebel

hmmm,8/65?
3:03 am
libarebel

r8/45-to quiz again
3:04 am
FranMag

libarebel, find the es5/10 first and then add that ending to it, it really is strange
3:04 am

3:30 am
FranMag

that was a great pointer about trying the endings on everything you can think of, i just found 4 more shorter words with that scaring ending
3:31 am
sprite

It works for me every time. I always think: no one is watching, why not try stupid things? And it pays off more often than not, lol.
3:33 am
libarebel

wow, having got rid of camping shelter-- ty sprite!

3:36 am
FranMag

No idea which ones yet
3:37 am
libarebel

Murphy's Law?
3:37 am
Haz1558

Universal law.
3:38 am
sprite

Another babble rule of mine: always check my own wordlist for forgotten plurals, singulars, verb forms etc. But so far no luck with that one.
3:38 am
libarebel

there's st5/12--a trick
3:39 am
sprite

With a past tense, I think.
3:39 am
libarebel

but st4/5--to amaze/paralyze sarts a bunch
3:39 am
libarebel

um, starts
3:41 am
sprite

Sefir isn't a word... could have sworn I heard that somewhere.
But I found one: S4 really great minus last letter.

3:48 am
FranMag

i found that u on the bottom left!
3:49 am
sprite

I simply ALWAYS forget some like these, a past tense, a plural, a singular. Always feels stupid, having 'fast' but not 'faster' and things like that.
WTG Fran! Nice find!
3:50 am
FranMag

today i'm actually missing the singulars and present tenses. i seemed to find longer words first.

I was certified and she got certified after doing a beginner dive. She just wanted to go while they were in close proximity. My mother was there visiting and I got there, then we flew with my sister, her hubby and three kids. Swam in the jellyfish lake, snorkeled, dove, toured, shopped. It was gorgeous!
6:27 pm
smithchick

My brother-in-law was certified, too. It was beautiful diving!

How was the haggis? :)
7:14 pm
Douglas

They were basically waiting for summer to get on with it. Unseasonably cold and gray.
7:14 pm
Douglas

I had a plate of haggis, neeps (rutabagas) and tatties (mashed potatoes), with some whiskey and onion gravy (that helped)
7:15 pm
stidmama

oh, that's too bad. The pics of scotland in nice weather are quite gorgeous...
7:15 pm
Douglas

nrkii, we whupped the deblogs good!
7:15 pm

7:16 pm
Jen

Either way, it sounds good!
7:16 pm
stidmama

It does sound good.
7:16 pm
Douglas

The ultimate testimony to Scottish thrift and frugality!
7:17 pm
FranMag

my husband is Filipino, we know about thrift and frugality when it comes to food!
7:17 pm
Jen

I think the key to haggis is that you don't think too much about what you are eating
7:18 pm
Douglas

That's true...
7:18 pm
FranMag

tony bourdain ate it on his chef's tour, it looked good to me!
7:19 pm
smithchick

I love Filipino food!
7:19 pm
Jen

Yeah, Fran, but he also ate raw blowfish as well. LOL I love him as a very down to earth chef, but I don't trust his taste sometimes. :)
7:20 pm
FranMag

smithchick, what have you tried and where did you try it?
7:20 pm
Jen

Mmm, pancit!
7:20 pm
FranMag

jen, i think the dangers of eating fugu are overrated
7:21 pm
Douglas

I had some chicken adobo in 2002 in Makati...yum!
7:21 pm
smokey2joints

i eat chicken adobo at least twice a week
7:21 pm
smithchick

I've got a good friend who is from the Phillipines and she has cooked for me a few times. Pork adobo, and some noodle stuff whose name I can't remember. She fixed some stuff with tomatoes, cabbage, spinach, onions, pork, and tamarind in it. Yummy!
7:21 pm
smokey2joints

have it over rice with frech cut green beans
7:21 pm
FranMag

but, i would still make sure it came from a good source!! the fugu that is
7:21 pm
smokey2joints

pansit, lumpia
7:22 pm
smokey2joints

it's all good
7:22 pm
smithchick

Yeah, Jen...Ponsitt is the way it looks to me.
7:22 pm
Jen

I actually don't eat anything raw, as I have an intestinal immune disorder... anything (toxic or not) could be deadly for me.
7:22 pm
smithchick

But I think that's what it is, pansit. Good stuff!
7:23 pm
Angelsong

today's grid was wonderful, if a trifle redundant...
7:23 pm
FranMag

i see why the raw fish episode didn't float your boat jen!!
7:23 pm
Angelsong

I've added some new content to the online resource pages, fyi.
7:23 pm
stidmama

we like adobo, I made some last week. We also enjoy mole (chocolate, of course!)
7:24 pm
Jen

Yeah, it kills me to order steak medium in restaurants, but I can't take any chances.
7:24 pm
stidmama

and the time zone map was great when I needed it a few hours ago! Thanks Angelsong!
7:24 pm
FranMag

7:24 pm
FranMag

different kind of adobo stid.
7:25 pm
stidmama

is it?
7:25 pm
Jen

I made mole sauce once and it wasn't all that good, so I stick with getting that out .
7:25 pm
stidmama

What is pilipino adobo like?
7:25 pm
smithchick

well, my neck is killing me. I'm gonna have to break out the list.I've still got 31 to find.
7:26 pm
FranMag

yes, filipino adobo is kind of a stew flavored with vinegar, black pepper, bay leaves and other things depending on where you are from in the phillipines
7:26 pm
smithchick

I love the citrusy flavor they put in a lot of things.
7:27 pm
Douglas

Delicious fruit is in abundance in the Phillippines, and sold on every corner
7:27 pm
Jen

Latino adobo is definitely not the same kind of seasoning as filipino... both are good though!
7:27 pm
stidmama

oh -- I see! I would like to try that sometime. There is a pilipino restaurant nearby, I will see if they have it.
7:28 pm
smokey2joints

if you are talking about geography and the country it's phillippines
7:28 pm
FranMag

i'm sure they do stid, it's a dish made all over the phillipines
7:28 pm
smokey2joints

if you are talking about the people and/or culture, it's filipino
7:28 pm
smokey2joints

7:31 pm

7:31 pm
stidmama

7:31 pm

9:25 pm
Jacula

Featherbee - for the ul word, think of a painful stomach sore and change the middle letters a little. Sounds a bit the same. The real word is a man's overcoat + another name for N. Ireland.
9:25 pm

Hursh - actually, that things about dead people's ashes not being cheering isn't always true. My Mum and I watched a thing called Booze Cruise III on TV the other night... all about a group of people journeying to scatter someone's mother's ashes. It ws hilarious. Hursh - it's not so long since my Dad died. I'll tell you a story about that and his ashes in a moment.

In the Booze Cruise tv programme, a lady said to her hubby (who had never liked her mother), 'You brought Mother's ashes home in a CARRIER BAG? ON THE BUS?' This reminded me of my Mum going off without telling me to get my Dad's ashes from the local undertaker's...

Mum brought Dad's ashes home in her shopping bag with a loaf atop. (Well, she needed a loaf and he always did like a slice of bread with his gravy.) However, on he way home (when her arms were acheing and he was thinking, 'He was never this heavy in life!') someone stopped her and asked, 'How's your husband?' It's a small village we live in, most folks knew he'd been in the last stages of senile dementia & Parkinson's Disease for a while.

My mother gave him a bit of a hard time, and as they were going to bed, he suddenly said to her, slurring, "When I win my $10,000, you're not going to get one GD cent! Well... maybe I'll give you a buck." My mother was terrified because my father had never told her the story!

10:28 pm

hmmm...
