You go the wrong way about that, Ata. You must drop in on the floor and yell: Noooooo hobbit, don't touch it, nooooo!
3:11 am
sprite

Ata, what was that cod-word again you wanted to have here?
3:11 am
Atalante

LOOOOL. She's too clever for that one, though - I've tried it! The one way to get her to eat anything, I've found out though, is to put it on my dinner plate and pretend to eat it and then put it down on the floor for her. In that way, the icky thing is instantly transformed into Major Treat from My Plate

My Mom passed today. Again, wanted to thank you. You all saved my sanity many a nights when I would come home from caring for her, and come on here, and talk and laugh with everyone. Not trying to bring anyone down, just wanted you to know, whether any of you knew it or not, you in a small part, helped me :) Thanks everyone. Now, eyes half closed, I plan on tacking this grid. :)

Is that the F word from yesterday? I laughed so much
7:27 am

rolin, there are some on the chat that are very strong in their opinion of a list... full stop!! I have noticed the backlash and wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that!! LOL, but you are right, we all have a right to play the game as we like... what ever turns us on!

7:36 am
Frances

Atalante
I've started this week trying to do without lists and did manage a biggie. However, that doesn't mean that if I'm really stuck I will not look
7:37 am
mrpresident

I started out harrasing the hell out of people on the grid for words... and they were more than happy to clue! then I started getting hints from people to use the list, then hints to use resources,... I figured I wasn't so great and should hunt for clues ... then I got better and finally started to finish! I get stuck, I go the list and the resources!!
7:37 am
licketySplitAUS

Atalante - finishing a grid is a fabulous achievement! Doing it without help - well Hat's off! Good to hear that you get help and admit it! I just can't phathom how much of a memory you'd have to have to do it solo in 24 hours.
7:38 am

occasionally *occasionally* I can do a grid with no help, but generally that's only Sprite's domain! LOL mrp that's exactly how I ended up doing it - if you don't challenge yourself a bit, you don't get anywhere. but I am very very glad forall the clues in the log!!
7:40 am

The clues are wonderful and sometime hillarious
7:41 am

me too....clues I mean.....I love to give clues if I can but I'm not very quick !!...but I feel extremely clever if I can...it's as enjoyable as the babble
7:41 am

utterly! the clues are often the best part!
7:42 am

7:45 am
mrpresident

too right atalante! the last 1/2 hour tends to be when they are *required* and that is to me ok, cause what is the harm!? when the kids come on, they want easy clues and that is another time for going-the-easy... otherwise, list and resource yourself for extra comfort!!
7:46 am
Atalante

oh yes I agree! its when they appear 1/2 an hour after a new grid that I start throwing stabby things around!
7:46 am

They don't just want easy clues - they want the words
7:47 am

you're right Frances

10:09 am
Charm

bye, Frances - later.
10:10 am
Frances

Bye
10:10 am
Vicuna

No, Charm, I think that clue is more for the enjoyment of the people who already have the word. I couldn't get the word from it, either.
10:10 am
jbp

and abe, i just read down for your pizza clue, thanks!!
10:10 am
amandacath

10:11 am
amandacath

That one really isn't fun. the do8&9 is a kind of silk spelled wrong, and I can't think of a good clue for it
10:11 am
Frances

dl88

amandacath, change the last letter of your 6/27 to the cross letter
11:25 am
Haz1558

Okay pa8/55 is the plural for pa7/40 - first three letters what you would cook in, then Scottish exclamation (three letters, guttural sound) and second vowel. Then pluralise.
11:25 am
72 Temple Owl

i am at the en's.....7 & 8

Annie - when (if!) I get those odd, odd words, it's because I remember them from previous grids, or I monkey-type them based on the number of points
11:39 am
Anniebrook

amanda, that's what i do too. i also monkey type away and sometimes i see the green bar. this is very addictive. my daughter's fault, bless her.

hi there, Can I have a clue for the eu 8 pls?
12:53 pm
Haz1558

eu8/55 is a strange word and difficult to clue. eu plus a vegetable sound alike letter. Add a negative word (two letters) then follow with an anagram of frozen water.
12:53 pm
Uncagain

the eu 8 word ends in the letter after b, and the three letters before are all vowels. Sorry , if that is not clear but is all I have been able to come up with
12:54 pm
phandmd

Thanx Haz, your clue worked! Thanx to you too, Uncagain
12:54 pm

1:11 pm
stidmama

hi movieman! haven't seen you in forever!
1:12 pm
stidmama

no Vicuna, been without running water all weekend, the well failed. I picked up the part we need, but am not electrically inclined so have to wait until Tom gets home this afternoon...
1:12 pm
stidmama

I am down to 139 words, want another 39 and then I will go play outside for a couple hours. :-) (happy thought)
1:13 pm
Vicuna

Oh, what a pain! (Though luckily not as painful as a conflagration, of course.)
1:14 pm
stidmama

absolutely not as bad as a fire (dealt with one of those in a bedroom soon after we moved in -- small, but smelly -- kids don't always get the point about matches...)
1:15 pm
Vicuna

Oh, they get the point about matches -- just not the point about consequences!
1:16 pm
stidmama

well, he got the point after the firemen came, and Tom came home early -- and I was a total wreck... I don't think he'll ever do something like that again!
1:16 pm
Vicuna

An adventure, to say the least!
1:17 pm
stidmama

truly! and fortunately, not an expensive one... in life or property. My biggest fear is fire...
1:19 pm

hmmm... looks like this grid is heavily "co" dependent... think I'll dive in for a while!

stidmatt

'Sup everybody who just logged in. Sorry Minski.
1:25 pm
Charm

Hey, stidmatt. (as my 4yo says:) nothing
1:25 pm
Charm

d8/9 - Italian silk. sounds like 2 baby horses.
1:26 pm
Vicuna

Minski, start with a twosome, then add the little particle that starts with p, end with first person sing. nominative pronoun
1:27 pm
Vicuna

(Actually, I guess I was being dyslexic with my twosome. you'd have to reverse the vowels. Sorry.)
1:29 pm
smithchick

Hi everybody...I've tried all kinds of combinations and I can't get that d8/9 combo...
1:29 pm
Erda

Speak Italian, lived in Italy, never heard of that silk.....
1:30 pm
smithchick

I've seen it spelled du...but still can't make it work adding the o.
1:31 pm
Vicuna

The silk is usually spelled du-, not do. Try this: first three letters of what you feel when you're not sure, next four letters are a small p- particle, last letter me, and pl for the 9.
1:31 pm
Charm

d8/9 - do + not I + 3.141 + round vowel + the knights who say **.
1:32 pm
Erda

Let me try: first note of the musical scale + not down + charged particle + third vowel.....then pluralize it
1:33 pm
Haz1558

Those clues have worked for me!
1:34 pm

1:47 pm
M3

en/7 please?
1:49 pm

en7 would mean "internal foot" if my Latin serves me. Start with opp of beginning + vowel + place where peas are alike

I'm tempted Janiece!
8:14 pm

or your spacebar has a couple little pieces that come off it and look like hooks. those little hooks will fit into a groove-like place that you can see (if you are in good light), then a nice firm shove on the key will seat it.
8:14 pm
bonkler

deep
8:14 pm

10:43 pm
helenkeller

10:43 pm

probate can be a long process (i'm a legal secretary) if the estate is substantial or complicated
10:43 pm

my sisters and i, three of us. mostly its just the condo and an even split of proceeds.
10:44 pm
helenkeller

i had to do it, fortunately no problems with probate, but it's not like they leave everything all taken care of - so many headaches just finding their files, dealing with respective insurances, you keep at it, it will only make you stronger (after it saps you completely) :)
10:44 pm
firefly779

Fran is a plethora of help tonight!
10:45 pm
Cathyar

last try at the clue -- the silk is normally spelled starting dupi****
11:59 pm
stidmama

then you put the o in after the d and end it with oni; then plural...
11:59 pm
stidmama

good luck, see you all on the other side!
