DR1965

Hi AUtumn

12:50 am

loredana

hello autumn moon

12:50 am

ursh

Hi Kiwi - glad you are feeling better - I think it is better to stay "above" the ugliness and sometimes "mates" think an affair is "clever and cool"

12:50 am

GroovyKiwi

nothing will be that autumn ive got written proof to back me up llol

12:50 am

ardilla

hi autumn

12:50 am

GroovyKiwi

12:51 am

DR1965

Gnight Lori Ann

12:51 am

Just1Mar

night lori tc

12:51 am

loredana

ursh is quite right mates think its a cool thing men have the right to do just count to ten before you do anything kiwi sometimes best to rise above it you are such a babe dont let him bring you down

12:51 am

cybernan

I must have missed dart's finsih while I was buried in the grid!

12:52 am

Just1Mar

yeah kiwi.....think about it first.....I know it sounds soooo tempiting but don't lower yourself to his crap standards...

12:52 am

GroovyKiwi

no im gonna ring her and say i need your full name please so i can mention on the court order for adultery when filing for my divorce

12:52 am

loredana

you did cyber !!!!

12:52 am

ursh

exactly just - best to stay above

12:53 am

Andree

are your laws different to ours kiwi, no blame divorce has been law here since 1969 and the courts don't care who is to blame, their only concern is the children

12:53 am

loredana

as for her kiwi.... well some good old kiwi medicine should do her well

12:53 am

GroovyKiwi

actually over here we have to legally separate for two years before we can file for divorce

12:54 am

GroovyKiwi

and the only way you can legally separate is because of irreconcilable differences

12:54 am

Andree

here it i 1 year

12:54 am

Just1Mar

if you do speak to her, kiwi....just mention that you hope she makes good money cause his is going to you and the kids!

12:54 am

GroovyKiwi

she makes as much as he does being a prison officer about $50k a year

12:54 am

loredana

she is a prison officer is she kiwi

12:55 am

GroovyKiwi

yup works with him

12:55 am

Just1Mar

what would that be in US funds kiwi?

12:55 am

ardilla

good luck with it all, kiwi i'll keep you in my prayers

12:55 am

loredana

maybe the justice deprtment or superintendent of the prison should know what sort of staff he or her has huh?

12:55 am

GroovyKiwi

about $40k i think give or take

12:55 am

ardilla

i agree lore

12:56 am

cybernan

*!*~*!* ta da *!*~*!*

12:56 am

GroovyKiwi

i dont think they really care lore the amount of marriage splits within prison officer ranks is legendary

12:56 am

ardilla

12:56 am

Just1Mar

wtg nan!

12:56 am

loredana

yes but they dont like the publicity

12:57 am

Andree

i know i am being a pain kiwi butthink about endangering his job before you do anything

12:57 am

debbinla

beast!

12:58 am

GroovyKiwi

a heck of a lot of revenge things to do went through my head yesterday but they dissapeared after a few drinks

12:58 am

ardilla

and remind her that once a cheater always a cheater and charma is a female dog

12:58 am

cybernan

12:58 am

GroovyKiwi

GroovyKiwi

12:59 am

GroovyKiwi

I had a lot of fun, yesterday. I planted tomatos and parsley, repotted an aloe, planted sage, thyme, oregano and chives. I have to get more pots so I can plant the rest of my herb garden, and I want to grow an avocado also.

Angel, dont' avocadoes take years to grow ?

8:40 am

ardilla

any clues needed from me?

Scrabbler: don't let the grid bo4/6 you. It's stubborn, but doable. Add a cup of hot br5/16 along with your java, and you won't be bo5/16. You may have to ed4/5 some of the words, but being an ed6/21 is fun.

You don't have to be a pr4/8 to get these 90 words. I cut my te5/12 on some of these words. It is not a ru4/6 less grid, especially if you op4/5 your mind...if it is already closed, just re6/21 it...

2:48 pm

Minveryork

It was bright & sunny here yesterday, but not today

2:49 pm

autumn moon

It's not overly sunny here today either. Kind of cool but at least it's not raining.

2:49 pm

Lindrickway

2:50 pm

Minveryork

I used to live near the city.Lived in Yonkers which is right outside of the Bronx.I moved north a year ago.

2:50 pm

Lindrickway

This is odd. Only six words left, and they include three sixes and all three sevens.

2:53 pm

Minveryork

I went to London when I was a little kid, but I do not remember too much about it. Was there for 2 weeks.

2:53 pm

Minveryork

2:54 pm

Lindrickway

oh dear gwenski! if you need help please ask

2:54 pm

Lindrickway

LOL min

2:54 pm

gwenski

Learned that from the tile stats, right Min? lol

2:54 pm

Minveryork

I usually do all of the four letter words first and then the harder words last. I will save it for later tonight.

2:55 pm

gwenski

Is there some secret to the sevens I might be missing? Like, do they end the same way or anything? Or am I just being dense??

2:55 pm

Lindrickway

does that mean you are going Min?

2:55 pm

Minveryork

Actually, no I didn't.All I can tell from the stats is the first letter of the word.Can't tell how many letters it is from the tile stats. How does it tell you the length?

2:56 pm

Lindrickway

i thought they were all freaky words gwenski

2:56 pm

gwenski

Word Stats grid tells you that part.

2:56 pm

yay JBV

3:34 pm

JBV

i asked a question yesterday but no one answered - in the last 3 days I did not miss a day and completed the puzzle every day, so why did I go down in the rankings? I still don't understand all the fine points of that system

3:34 pm

JoanieK

ok, tell the novice how long it took the experts to complete this puzzle

3:34 pm

gwenski

Hard to say, JoanieK, as you have 24 hours to work a puzzle!

3:34 pm

JBV

Joanie it's hard to say - because i do it in spurts and grab a few minutes whenever i can all day - maybe 2 hours total

3:35 pm

JBV

of course, today's is a mini-puzzle, only 90 words, sometimes takes much longer

3:36 pm

gwenski

Which ranking went down, JBV?

3:37 pm

gwenski

And Joanie, people play differently. Some choose no help or outside support, some use lists like Lickety's, and some use resource lists like A2z or morewords lists.

3:38 pm

JBV

in the WHo's HOt column, Friday was 974, Saturday was 952, today is 970, not sure why it went down

3:41 pm

periwinkle

fireworks

3:41 pm

gwenski

'Who's Hot' tallies the last 30 days. So it depends greatly on all thirty days.

3:42 pm

gwenski

If you finished the puzzle the days 1 and 3, but didn't work it on day 2, then when the 30-day window slips so that day 1 is excluded, your score would go down.

3:42 pm

JBV

well, there were 2 days that I did not complete the puzzle but that was before the 974 (I was at 1,030 before)

3:42 pm

JBV

oh, I see, thanks gwenski

3:43 pm

gwenski

Congrats, peri!

3:43 pm

JBV

congrats, peri!

3:43 pm

periwinkle

I was at 1030 for weeks in who's hot and now am 1028. I have finished every puzzle in the last 30 days

3:44 pm

gwenski

Oh well. So much for my explanation! You can always email Dr. G for more info!

3:44 pm

JBV

I guess numbers are not my forte - my husband makes fun of me - I usually get all the answers on Jeopardy but have no clue how to bet on the final answer nor do I ever know the winners know how to outsmart the competition with betting

3:44 pm

bye

3:44 pm

gwenski

Eek! Penalty box, JBV!

3:45 pm

4:03 pm

westford

I have 7 left and haven't gone to the list

4:03 pm

redturtlehead

Well, Clermont has a big triathelete training center, which is probably why you thought that. Julio is just a lowly runner, and he hasnet competed enough this year...

4:03 pm

redturtlehead

Yaaaay Westfords Daughter!!!!

4:03 pm

scubadiver

Pardon...fe5's.

4:04 pm

redturtlehead

my son who lives in israel got engaged. i had to fly to israel fast to meet the girl and her family. they arranged for me to stay at a friends house across the street from them. when i walked in, her husband looked at me and said "you were on my plane! i saw you knitting! you sat across from me! " i was shocked. then the wife who is michnick, said she was from philly and she grew up with my sister in law and knew the family. it was amazing. we instantly loved each other. we talked all night and it was absolutely wonderful! so every time we go to neve yakov, i ask to stay at her house! michnick has a wonderful husband and wonderful kids! and she is amazing. and so it is funny that she is on the grid too!
