2:03 am
scarydeb

the UK was badly hit with lots still without electricity
2:03 am
sprite

It was really bad for this part of the world. No trains at all, most major roads blocked for safety and several deaths.

things rarely make the news unless there are numerous deaths
2:03 am
jillibus

I saw there were winds up to 91 mph
2:04 am
scarydeb

same in UK Sprite with still a lot of disruption today
2:05 am
sprite

Usually the Netherlands are too small to be of concern for american news, unless it is really desastrous. I was so incredibly relieved when my kids and love made it home yesterday.

Angb

You can't be too careful in chatlogs, often meaning is misconstrued as we see once in a while here
2:33 am
Angb

Right - on to trying to grey boxes.
2:34 am
FranMag

QP is humbling, every time i think i've done pretty good the rest of the players just blow my score away.

3:26 am
Haz1558

Just to make the grid even more challenging, Fran? That could be the new aim for those seeking to make babble as hard as possible - don't look at the grid!
3:26 am
Angb

Dont know what I'm missing Fran - but thanks for the offer
3:27 am
FranMag

here's more of a challenge, have someone read the grid to you and find words that way...not!

I'm thinking andree how to clue it
3:30 am
Angb

hi 6 = ends with the french for salt. Starts with a syllable that sounds like the female possessive word (whatever you call it in grammar)
3:31 am
Angb

Sorry - not up to that page in my son's English workbook
3:31 am
Andree

perfect angb
3:31 am
Angb

Cool
3:32 am
Haz1558

Possessive pronoun is the technical term but you've got the hardest word to spell correct!
3:32 am
Angb

It's the sort of word I usually hope someone else clues LOL
3:32 am
egbokmom

got hi 6!
3:33 am
Angb

Thanks Haz - must get son to work so I figure the proper names out
3:33 am
Haz1558

You've clued it perfectly. No dictionary definition given but we would use it here to describe a type of cough.
3:33 am
Angb

We did homophones today!
3:34 am
Andree

I have forgotten all those terms years ago am reduced to saying thingy,lol

4:55 am
Odin

My pleasure...it is a great grid today.
4:55 am
sugar

that's a matter of opinion!
4:56 am
sugar

I hate z's..............
4:56 am
Odin

LOL...it is great if it is small and interesting...seems it may be both today.
4:56 am
Odin

I also am not found of the z's...any idea how many are in this one?
4:57 am
sugar

3
4:57 am
Odin

The less the better.
4:57 am
Haz1558

Those of us with z in our name COULD take offence....
4:58 am
sugar

no haz, only words beginning with!
4:58 am
Haz1558

You dug yourself out of that one well!
4:59 am
Odin

Mornin' to you Miss Haz...no offence intended. If I see you name in a grid I find it quite simply.However, there are z words the nuns never told me about!
4:59 am
sugar

why is zois not a word? it has a nice ring to it.....
4:59 am
Haz1558

Wise nuns.
5:00 am
Odin

Indeed...I must say I like your icon .. good clue.
5:00 am
sugar

naughty z's ? hmmmmm
5:01 am
Haz1558

Thanks Odin - have you seen FMitch's wasp waist courtesy of her diet/co6/21?
5:02 am
Odin

I believe I mossed it as I got into the grid after she was gone.
5:02 am
Odin

But I got the clue...thanks Haz
5:03 am
Haz1558

It's worth seeing if she comes back. The nuns might not approve though.
5:03 am
Odin

I expect you are noticing my typing skills are atrocious today...mind is fine fingers are on their own.
5:04 am
Haz1558

You're doing pretty well, no desperate spelling errors anyway. Our local paper carried a story where guests at a reception were treated to champagne and canopies.
5:05 am
Odin

LOL...if have seen a few in the papers. Tough getting the awning poles down from the canopies, huh?
5:05 am
sugar

lol haz! I cannot believe the amount of typos in newspapers - you'd think with spellcheck....???
5:06 am
Haz1558

The problem with spellcheck is that it doesn't know anything about context.
5:06 am
Odin

Exactly.
5:06 am
sugar

true, true
5:07 am
Haz1558

And I felt sorry for a young football team whose exploits as Carniny Clots just didn't sound as good as Carniny Colts.

any clue for the 8 please?
5:08 am
Haz1558

Okay - zo4/10 - relating to animal life (add part of the frozen water)
5:08 am

Obviously spellcheck would have had no problem with clots...but where the hell are the editors and proof readers?
5:08 am
Odin

Don't have it yet spanner
5:08 am
Haz1558

zo4/9 - zo plus two vowels (ending of the popular beverage)

ty sugar, but I dont have mi 6/21 yet LOL
5:10 am
Haz1558

I don't think editors can be bothered any more - certainly our local newspaper editor claimed that he couldn't read every part of the newspaper and that he was depending on young journalists who hadn't a very good grounding in English. Why employ them??
5:10 am
sugar

My point exactly, Odin, these people are writing for a living, for Pete's sake!
5:11 am
sugar

what about the ea5/10 - to have ingested food
5:11 am
spanner

Some time ago a headline in my mothers local rag read 'vicar rapes parishoners' it was supposed to say 'vicar raps parishoners'....
5:12 am
Haz1558

Oh spanner!!!!
5:12 am

Thats hysterical, spanner - bet the vicar loved it, and Odins nuns went a whiter shade of pale!!!!
5:13 am

my mothers reaction to the headline was..'what? ALL of them?
5:13 am
sugar

your mother should be on the stage, LOL

Hurshy-just looking at your blurb again and think I may have said this before, but don't know if I've run into anyone else who appreicated Cold Comfort Fram, although the book was much, much better than the moie. We probably did discuss this before, right? One of my neighbors has cows that look like they should all be named Feckless.

It has, of course, much more detail. But there are certainly times when I wouldn't mind shutting myself in my room , getting room service and simply muttering, every once in a while "I saw something nasty in the woodshed".

faithfulness he talked of, your enduring faithfulness...tell me true, when you found out your love was dead, did you get engaged to the prince the same day or did you wait a week out of respect for the dead?

6:40 pm
SMDNJV

Question please! How many times do you watch a movie to be able to quote so eloquently?
6:41 pm
Janiece

I can only answer for myself, and I would say 10 - 15 times. And I loved each time.
6:42 pm
SMDNJV

LOL Janiece!!
6:42 pm
NonnieLight

I can't quote like that no matter how many times I watch a movie!
6:43 pm
Janiece

Now feather and Hurshy really are eloquent! I wonder how many times they have watched it?...
6:43 pm
SMDNJV

I can't either. I watch "To Kill a Mockingbird" and Primal Fear every time I hear of them playing somewhere....but I can barely quote the titles!!
6:44 pm
SMDNJV

It would be interesting to know!!
6:44 pm
hurshy

i don't remember. i haven't watched it in several years. i should remedy that.
6:44 pm

I have a hard time remembering the character's names...but I still love watching a good movie over again.

well, fran, I was going to and then heard from Minveryork that she was pleased with a house right near where my aunt used to live and I used to vidit -- plus I knew the area very well even in dog-show years.

8:49 pm
FranMag

jilli, do you still watch the dog shows? the westminster dog show is this weekend i think on USA network.
8:49 pm
jillibus

Right -- and with Minver there are so many coincidences -- she now lives right near where my parents and three aunts used to live -- one of them being the one with the summer place we all went to.
8:49 pm
FranMag

i might be wrong about the dates, but i know it's on USA.
8:50 pm
jillibus

I love to watch the dog shows but it's hard to get Westminster live here

8:52 pm
jillibus

Yes, but I forget the dates of that show -- it didn't exist when I was really active in the game
8:52 pm
FranMag

yes, it's only in it's 3rd or 4th year.
8:53 pm
FranMag

when you owned great danes did you show them yourself?
8:54 pm
jillibus

Westminster is also known as The Garden because it's held at Madison Square Garden. I went to several of them and met some Great Dane icons from England there, as well as well known US breeders who became good friends.

10:23 pm
GreyWoulf

pappa -- the prob is that my LC store is run more like an extended clique than as a professional business, therefore my failure was seen as a personal betrayal -- especially since we are short staffed and that night they had noone else to work in the lab
10:23 pm

lol kanga! that used to happen to me all the time, my daughter finally lost interest in the on/off switch on the power strip.

Bunny My son was about 5 yrs older when i caught him smoking. It is disappointing and i think it hurts a little also. Fortunately, it was just a phase for him. My entire family is smokefree now.
10:26 pm
smooth_pappa

I empathize about he environment, woulfe... I love my company, I love working in the arts, but sometimes it's run like yours as well... the idea of culture is behind every new hire... not "culture" like music or anything like that, but how well the personality would fit in the comapny, and work environment
10:26 pm
Dorens

I think the cig was for show also. She is way too young to even want to smoke. I had to pick my battles so I did not make a scene over him smoking..just told him I was disappointed. Fortumately his desire was to please and not rebel against his parents.

Nizhni is just where the volga and oko rivers meet... I'd like to actually head out into siberia, but nizhni was great! 3rd largest city in russia, but i was closed to foreigners, and most russians during the cold war, due to sensitive industry there... a city that many peole died trying to get into... now it's comparable to somehwere like cleveland or milwaukee... bu t it is a fun city :)

I bet! I think travel has opened up greatly in the last little while. I was there a couple of times in the early 90s and foreigners couldn't go anywhere. I was staying with a Russian family, so I had some perks. I remember standing in a train station and an American came up to me. He was completely lost because he couldn't read Cryllic. They didn't make travel easy in those days.

Wow! I can believe it. Once I was on Arbat Street and I saw a Russian trying to buy something with US dollars. This was in the early 90s.

11:56 pm

He (Shelf Life) thought they should go into business making a5/14s, and corner the world's market, but Zippy was still hung up on people in Cincinnati being unable to button their pocket flaps if anything happened to that city in China
