One of my worst triggers was MSG. It is in a lot of processed foods, under disguised names. Read "In Bad Taste - The MSG Syndrome". When you can read, that is.

this is the rules of Target Word
Solving the Target Puzzles
See how many words of four letters or more can you make from the letters shown in the grids.

In making a word, each letter must be used once only.

The word must contain the centre letter and there must be at least one nine-letter word in the list.

No plurals or verb forms ending with "s"; no words with initial capitals and no words with a hyphen or apostrophe are permitted. The first word of a phrase is permitted (eg inkjet in inkjet printer).

OOPS! And hi.

4:41 am

herinfernallady

How are you Monkey?

4:41 am

MonkeyGames

Supposed to be at work, volunteer internship, but there's a major cultural difference. Where I grew up in California, the work ethic was "if you can use enough cold remedies to be on your feet, get your butt to work". The ethic here in the Netherlands seems to be "if you aren't fully recovered get your butt back to bed". I've had this stupid flu series for four weeks-- but there's an epidemic, so so has everyody else.

4:41 am

herinfernallady

Oh icky

4:42 am

MonkeyGames

Walter had it briefly but with his shiny new immune system he threw it right off. He's at daycare today, I'm trying to ignore the housework and homework backlog and try to take it easy.

4:43 am

herinfernallady

\Lucky kid

4:44 am

MonkeyGames

Yup. And he's been so SWEET about me being sick! "Poor mama, a kiss will make mama feel better". BUT he's been naturally getting a bit stir crazy so I am glad he could get back out to daycare today. He's at a really nice one, he loves it there.

4:44 am

herinfernallady

noorrrr cute

4:45 am

MonkeyGames

He can usually go play at the neighbor's for a while but one of her toddlers had adenoid and ear-tubes surgery yesterday. I'm waiting to hear how the little fella is.

4:46 am

herinfernallady

Oh poor kid

4:46 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah, but when he recovers from the surgery the constant ear infections will be a thing of the past, so it's a good thing.

4:47 am

herinfernallady

Oh fantastic for him

4:48 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah. Walter's only ever had four ear infections; this poor kid was getting them every six weeks, double ones with super-high fevers, antibiotics, the works.

6:06 am

Scrabbler

Yes, a pediatric dentist may want to re-locate that tooth. But the adult tooth will be fine. The baby tooth may turn grey in a few months if the blood supply has been disrupted.

It's from Utrecht, 1768. Found it in the dog-running woods at the end of the road.

6:29 am

Hi Lilli.

6:29 am

what sort of coin is it monkey?

6:29 am

morning dorens.... yes to the snow here

6:30 am

Scrabbler

WOW, monkey---that is SOOOO neat! Will you get it appraised? Will you get rich?

6:30 am

Scrabbler

Hi Doren

6:30 am

MonkeyGames

It's called a "duit". They were worth 1/4 of a Dutch nickel. Little silver coin, about the size of a US nickel but thinner.

6:30 am

redturtlehead

I have to do all the cleaning today as well as drive over to Los alamos. No biggie.

6:30 am

Dorens

wow red, that is soon

6:30 am

Yes, its been 13 weeks dorens, timet o move on.

6:30 am

Your name isn't mo4/5, is it, Pink?

6:31 am

LoriP

Dorens, we're going to get the snow Scrabbler had. Thanks a bunch Scrabbler. ***or not***

6:31 am

redturtlehead

No not really. I am working on it though.

6:31 am

MonkeyGames

I wrote the coin museum. They are common enough among coin traders that it's only worth about 2 Euros. I think it's just way cool to have found it.

6:31 am

pinkhatlil

no da4/9

6:31 am

Scrabbler

Yes, Monkey, to think about who handled that coin in 1768 and beyond, and what life was like then.

6:32 am

Scrabbler

Aha, Pink--I found that earlier.

6:32 am

MonkeyGames

I find pipes from teh 1500's and onward all the time, and I have two very historic little glass vials, but so far th eonly really valuable thing I have found, on some ground they were turning into a small park, is a complete wine bottle from 1750, worth about 400 Euros. Not that I'm going to sell it -- it's too cool.

6:32 am

lilliann

well. it's nice just to keep monkey

6:33 am

MonkeyGames

Yes, that's the point: a bit of history in the house.

6:33 am

herinfernallady

That is cool Monkey

6:34 am

MonkeyGames

I also found a human jawbone in the park, very old. Called the police, of course, as that is what one does. Turns out the hill up from the park used to house a graveyard in the 1600's.

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Doren, you just squashed our Babble Self-Esteem! I have been here for 50 min and found 76 words. And, Lori is probably getting some alcohol now.

6:50 am

herinfernallady

Help with that lone E middle collum down the bottom

6:50 am

LoriP

You can pick your nose, but you can't pick your relatives......

6:50 am

lilliann

bye dorens, have a good day

6:50 am

BabbleRabble

How many choices does Lori have to pick from?

6:50 am

Atalante

Lori? Are you picking your nose?

6:50 am

Scrabbler

Hahaha, Lori.

LoriP

Later Dorens have a good one.

6:52 am

Haz1558

herinfernallady

Laters

6:52 am

Uniquity

Bye Scrabbler!

6:52 am

6:53 am

Atalante

6:53 am

herinfernallady

? Ata (and i should know this one)

6:53 am

Haz1558

I don't know. How many ears has he got?

6:53 am

Atalante

3. A left ear, a right ear and a final frontier

6:54 am

Atalante

Haz, you won't get that. LOL. maybe

6:54 am

herinfernallady

groan i should have got that

6:54 am

kje

after that, why aren't you picking on them lori?

6:54 am

LoriP

LOL Ata! G'd morning Haz. kje, they're always mean to m, and I try to be quiet and reserved.

6:54 am

Haz1558

Oh, I got it. I have watched the beginnings of Star Wars.....

6:54 am

BabbleRabble

and I was certain the answer would have to be earoneous

6:54 am

kje

like your icon today lori - funny

6:54 am

Atalante

as hurshy faints in the background

6:55 am

Atalante

did I miss this quiet and reserved bit?

6:55 am

Haz1558

I couldn't resist.

6:55 am

Uniquity

Lori is such a stinker..

6:55 am

Uniquity

I have spent many moons with her. She is rarely wel behaved. Where else would I get it from??

6:55 am

herinfernallady

wow i have found 100 4 letter words

6:56 am

Haz1558

We're just amazed at how well you have emerged, Uni.

6:56 am

Atalante

Haz makes a fantasy joke! Will wonders never cease :D:D Soon you'll know who Anakin is

6:56 am

kje

so today's theme must be something about written icons?

6:56 am

Haz1558

Anakin - isn't that a cold remedy or something?

6:56 am

redturtlehead

If its a cold rememdy I need it.

6:57 am

Atalante

I need Anakin but I don't know if he's a cold rememdy

6:57 am

herinfernallady

Oh Ata there is a hotel in Montery called Borg Hotel

6:57 am

Haz1558

Friday is always take a word from the grid and make an icon from it.

6:57 am

BabbleRabble

thought anakin was ana's family tree

6:57 am

Uniquity

kje, it is just word from the grid day. I have started refusing to follow the themes, and Lori is a natural rebel. Plus, that is her favorite icon :)

6:58 am

kje

4 of you have written icons - thought I saw a pattern there : )

6:58 am

redturtlehead

the themes, are fine but I can not do each day do not have the time, and today I dont have a lot of good words yet.

6:58 am

LoriP

***Sounds a lot better than Lori is too lazy to change her icon***

6:58 am

Uniquity

Well, I was gonna do mo*** bread, but it was SO gross I couldn't take it

6:58 am

herinfernallady

opps Monterery

6:59 am

kje

I loke the theme thing, but it would also be nice if everyone kept the same icon - I could remember people better that way : )

6:59 am

herinfernallady

I do tend to follow the theme but sometimes i just want to look at my fluff ball kitty

7:00 am

Haz1558

Ah, there's the rub, kje. Some people like to follow the themes, others don't at all, others sometimes.

7:00 am

Atalante

*going into lurk mode as I do another layer of watercolour*

7:00 am

kje

I'm a sometimes

7:00 am

BabbleRabble

kje

LOL BabRab

7:03 am

LoriP

Lurk mode. LOL, the cloaking device can't be far off.....

7:03 am

kje

heman should be a word - I'm sure BabRab is a real "heman"

7:03 am

LoriP

Why do I still have 24 words?

7:04 am

herinfernallady

Cause

7:04 am

Uniquity

7:05 am

Uniquity

kje

7:05 am

Haz1558

So I'll keep you guessing.

7:06 am

Uniquity

I am trying to prepare myself for Haz's number

7:06 am

Haz1558

No, wild horses wouldn't drag it from me. I am an international woman of mystery when it comes to grid numbers.

7:06 am

Haz1558

But I'm in three figure....

7:15 am

AsGreen

I opened today's grid - saw the number of words and walked away.... (as in, giving myself a break today) - and then he came down and saw the grid and entered two words - now am I committed? :)

7:15 am

mrpresident

what happened green!

7:15 am

herinfernallady

Well yes Mr Pres do so. Maybe they didn't say anything as they didn't want a fuch

7:15 am

lilliann

7:15 am

lilliann

thanks all

7:15 am

lilliann

hi asgreen

7:15 am

Haz1558

mrpresident - our next door neighbours only discovered they were grandparents when their son and his wife turned up on their doorstep with baby in tow.

7:15 am

mrpresident

oh man~ you need to finish in order to keep up stats... bugger!

7:16 am

Anniebrook

smart kid, you are committed, green

7:16 am

mrpresident

my son has done that to me too

7:16 am

Haz1558

The son and wife lived in ENgland and thought it would be a laugh to keep the pregnancy secret.

7:16 am

Uniquity

My video?

7:16 am

Haz1558

They practically had to be revived on the doorstep.

7:16 am

kje

but babies are still a blessing - so should still be celebrated even if not ideal arrival

7:16 am

mrpresident

not a laugh at all Haz... this family is devastated!

7:16 am

AsGreen

ok, need to make coffee - bbs - darn kid

7:16 am

mrpresident

7:17 am

lilliann

on expert uni, a cowboy and a cow

7:17 am

mrpresident

Our friend keeps calling and asking us to visit his baby... he has nothing to do with the mother (allegedly)... but I am at a loss

7:17 am

herinfernallady

Mr PRes they must of had their reasons. I can remember these words about me from an ex 'I never told them about us as they would think i was an idiot to go out with you" Sometimes what we see and what the family sees are to different things.

7:18 am

Uniquity

a cowboy and a cow...I don't remember anything about that, but will look if I ever finish the grid! Oh, wait! Is it a cartoon?

7:18 am

kje

what an ass herin

7:18 am

mrpresident

I don't know the mother, and he has said he didn't want a child etc... she demanded he not tell anyone

7:18 am

AsGreen

btw, my rankings went down a number yesterday, even though I finished - I don't get that

7:18 am

kje

do you know the mom mr p?

7:18 am

lilliann

i couldn't do that to my parents....i wanted them included all through the pregnancy, plus my mam cut my daughters cord

7:19 am

lilliann

yes uni, the cowboy is singing

7:19 am

mrpresident

infern, that is sad

7:19 am

kje

if you don't know the mom, I'd probably stay out of it - seems like you'd just be stirring something up

7:19 am

LoriP

I have 38 words now. ***perhaps therapy? Meds?***

7:19 am

Uniquity

Sounds like Magical Trevor...one of my childish loves! Sorry if it doesn't work, I submitted some a looong time ago

7:19 am

mrpresident

I am staying away... it is her baby.

7:20 am

herinfernallady

Don't insult a donkey. :) Mr Pres it is hard now baby is here though maybe acknowledge the baby ? Well the kids here now and isn't going to vanish with the faeries

EvaNadine

Uniquity

Arrrr! Do it!

7:44 am

herinfernallady

Ata the kitty will be fine no butter needed shes an inside kitty (pardon the delay i was petting the kitty)

7:44 am

Haz1558

You just can't train foot warmers these days.

7:44 am

Haz1558

Bye Eva.

7:44 am

Uniquity

Your socks walk? :)

7:45 am

Atalante

socks? socks?! I hate socks!

7:45 am

Atalante

socks are evil

7:45 am

Haz1558

Don't socks rock?

7:45 am

Uniquity

I loathe socks, but it is snowing today

7:45 am

Uniquity

I'm a flip-flop/bare foot person

7:46 am

Atalante

7:46 am

Atalante

me too

7:46 am

herinfernallady

I like my stripey socks

7:46 am

Uniquity

Einstein didn't like socks ?

7:48 am

herinfernallady

Ata what is the butter on kitties feet meant to do appart from marking the floors. what is the scientific basis of it?

7:49 am

Atalante

I don't think there is any scientific basis for it. Its an old wives tale

7:49 am

herinfernallady

Ok i have heard of it and im like thats just silly

7:49 am

herinfernallady

plus tubby kitty would eat it

7:51 am

Atalante

carleekat

7:53 am

LoriP

Raring isn't exactly the descriptor that comes to mind......

7:54 am

lizmac

Been to Poland yet, Haz? I think the butter theory is that the cat will exhaust herself licking it off before they stray far..I think.....

7:55 am

herinfernallady

Oh thanks liz

7:55 am

herinfernallady

My cat likes water so i doubt she would not care about butter feet

7:56 am

FMitch

Afternoon all
Very, very, very wet today, anyone got an ark I could borrow?

7:56 am

carleekat

no ark..just..more snow

7:56 am

Atalante

7:56 am

LoriP

G'd morning FM. We could put pontoons on Herin's cat perhaps..... :-)

7:57 am

Don't you believe it, Herin. My cat drinks water only, but give her a dab of butter, loves it and harrasses for more!

7:58 am

FMitch

Lori that is 100% more words than I have if that helps :)

7:58 am

Atalante

I'm an artist. I'm not meant to be practical. Or something

7:58 am

carleekat

i only have 20 words lori....

7:58 am

LoriP

That makes me fell much better FM.

7:59 am

Haz1558

Oh look, FMitch is here!

7:59 am

herinfernallady

Cute Liz. As i said kitty would get fat before she got far plus she has a were's the f****** ceiling issues if she goes outside

7:59 am

LoriP

oh...my.... god.... fell, feel whatever. Ack

7:59 am

Atalante

what can we blame her for today?

7:59 am

Haz1558

Sorry, just reading back what I missed while in the grid.

7:59 am

FMitch

Yay I am here Haz, thought I would pop in for a quick hello

7:59 am

Haz1558

Not been to Ploland yet, Liz.

7:59 am

LoriP

The snowfall warning we'r under, for a start.

7:59 am

Haz1558

Well, hello!

8:00 am

carleekat

that the one we had last night lori

8:00 am

LoriP

Would a quyick hello be hell?

8:00 am

LoriP

Take it back carlee, I don't want it. ***stomps feet*** :(

8:01 am

FMitch

Beams proudly at Lori, your typos are coming along very nicely!

8:01 am

Haz1558

I don't know what hello is in the quyick language.

8:01 am

carleekat

but...its already gone.... talk to luc...is probably closer to him then me now

8:01 am

FMitch

LOL Haz

8:01 am

LoriP

***stops typing and pouts***

8:01 am

herinfernallady

SSince its pumkin hour night all

8:01 am

Haz1558

But I like the sound of the quyick language. Who speaks it, do you think?

8:01 am

FMitch

Weeeee

8:01 am

FMitch

Now Lori I was being sincere

8:02 am

LoriP

'Yewr all just jealous because I'm fluent in Eskimo.

8:02 am

Haz1558

FMitch is always sincere.

8:02 am

FMitch

I sin here I sin there ...

8:02 am

LoriP

I can fake sincerity. That's talent.

8:03 am

Haz1558

But some of us have inbuilt sincerity detectors. With velvet bows.

8:03 am

Atalante

clogs can do that too??!

8:03 am

FMitch

and clogs?

8:04 am

Haz1558

Stilts are especially talented that way.

8:04 am

FMitch

LOL!!

8:05 am

Haz1558

I'm having to perfect my soundless laugh lest my daughters demand to know why I'm in hysterics.

8:05 am

carleekat

u mean they think u are cured haz?......

8:06 am

FMitch

might they wisk the computer away from you? or want to join in?

8:06 am

LoriP

Alluva' sudden I hav this Lord Fauntleroy image happening. Wearing clogs, whilst walking ons tilts. That's talent!

8:06 am

Haz1558

No, they know the awful truth. The meds can only keep so much at bay.

8:06 am

FMitch

Walking on tilts? even better

8:06 am

carleekat

then..why worry?....

8:06 am

Haz1558

Lori, you're going to push me over the edge!

8:06 am

Atalante

tilted stilts? titled stilts?

8:06 am

LoriP

**never question the randomness of the inner recesses of my brain cell***

8:07 am

Haz1558

Oh titled stilts - for Lord Fauntleroy.

8:07 am

LoriP

I typed tilts. I really did that. Muh god.

8:07 am

LoriP

thanks god for the 'l' at least.

8:07 am

FMitch

Did Don Quiote have stilted tilts at windmills as practice runs?

8:07 am

Haz1558

Maybe tilted stilts are used for the mountains.

8:07 am

carleekat

ok..my font very small..i just thought u typed in tiled stilts... am imaging stilts with a lovely mosaic tile pattern

8:07 am

BabbleRabble

Through thy precepts I get understanding: Therefore I hate every false way.

8:08 am

Haz1558

Tiled stilts - kind of Romanesque - I like it.

8:08 am

carleekat

lovely blues... with a bit of gold...

8:09 am

Haz1558

If Don Quijote had used titled stilts instead of stilted tilts he might have got somewhere.

8:09 am

LoriP

I see this ballooning out of control.....

8:09 am

Atalante

*splutters*

8:09 am

carleekat

titled stilts...like some duke's stilts?

8:09 am

FMitch

and I gave you a pink balloon yesterday Lori, how spooky was that!

8:09 am

Haz1558

And if he had worn glasses instead of a monocle all would have gone better.

8:10 am

carleekat

can u give a royal title to a pair of tiled stilts?

8:10 am

carleekat

or even ...a rroyal title to tilted tiled stilts?

8:10 am

Haz1558

ONly if the stilts have accomplished much in their lifetime.

8:10 am

Atalante

definitely

8:10 am

LoriP

How about tilted spats? Very sharp looking, IMO

8:10 am

carleekat

( this is turning into something from dr suess )

8:11 am

carleekat

well..taking on windmills... does that constitute accomplishing much?

8:11 am

BabbleRabble

don Quixote and the windmills had a hit years ago, jousting makes the he4 go round

8:11 am

carleekat

gone to get some cereal....

8:12 am

FMitch

*Rustles pink newspaper, peering through monacle* I see the NASDAK is down a point or two and the price of crude is heading for an all time high. Don't ya know.

8:12 am

Atalante

its NASDAQ actually *rolls eyes* :D

8:13 am

Haz1558

As long as it's not NASCAR going down, we're safe.

8:13 am

LoriP

heh heh heh yah, it's NASDAQ. :p

8:13 am

FMitch

Picks up Atas eyes and rolls them back

8:13 am

FMitch

8:14 am

LoriP

Did she look stern before or aft?

8:14 am

Haz1558

Gosh, that's Atalante being stern and Lori being stern all in one morning. I feel ..... I don't know what I feel.

8:14 am

carleekat

yea.. a pipeline in basra was hit...soooo..up goes sweet light crude again

8:15 am

carleekat

8:15 am

Atalante

the idea of sweet crude always makes me giggle

8:15 am

Uniquity

Stem to stern?

8:15 am

LoriP

Is sour crude cheaper?

8:16 am

carleekat

sour..it is

8:16 am

Haz1558

Daughter has called down concerned that I'm choking.

8:16 am

Atalante

actually, lori, usually it is!

8:16 am

BabbleRabble

perhaps it is cheaper to be crude

8:16 am

carleekat

hehe he..... that funny...

8:16 am

Atalante

sour crudes have more contaminants in that need to be refined out

8:16 am

carleekat

and they STINK

8:16 am

Uniquity

I want to be sour and crude and cheap

8:17 am

LoriP

I can be crude, but I'm on a family board, so I behave.

8:17 am

Haz1558

No you don't, Uniquity. The angels won't like a crude, cheap leader.

8:17 am

carleekat

go to port jerome then uni..their crude is worse then wrotten eggs

8:18 am

LoriP

Uni's had no guidance. That
'

8:18 am

Uniquity

This is true. The angels like me as sweet and not cheap.

8:18 am

LoriP

's her problem.....

8:18 am

Haz1558

You always have to think of the angels.

8:18 am

Uniquity

I think of the angels every day

8:18 am

carleekat

kashi is so yummmmmm

8:19 am

BabbleRabble

some angels turned to evil

8:19 am

Haz1558

See, now you're calming right down. Breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out.

8:20 am

BabbleRabble

and look what happened ... church lady

8:20 am

Haz1558

To the PB, Babble!

BabbleRabble

8:22 am

FMitch

ROFL

8:22 am

LoriP

Hush carlee! You're making me feel more stoopider.

8:22 am

FMitch

Is a figger someone who steals figs?

8:22 am

Haz1558

od4/7 - anagram of an elderly person

8:23 am

MonkeyGames

Lori, that was FUNNY!

8:23 am

Haz1558

MonkeyGames

Thanks!

8:25 am

FMitch

Ah the asking for clues has brought me back to reality, sigh, I guess I had better go and get on with work again.

8:25 am

LoriP

I just had an awesome revelation, there are no re's in this grid. Yet, it still sucks.

8:25 am

Atalante

awwww fm ...

8:25 am

Haz1558

Okay, off I go to get lunch etc. Back later, perhaps. Be good....

8:25 am

LoriP

No FM, don't work. productivity can only lead to evil and taxation.

8:25 am

Uniquity

What is this? Escape of the Brits?

8:25 am

MonkeyGames

Bye Haz!

8:26 am

LoriP

Later Haz, happy munching.

8:26 am

FMitch

By HAz TTFN, sorry ladies. See you later hopefully!!

8:26 am

LoriP

That'd make a good book title. Escape of the Brits, a saga.

8:26 am

Haz1558

Yes, we're ducking under the radar. Besides, I need to go and get my copy of FT to see how my stocks and shares are going in the NASCAR.

8:26 am

LoriP

8:27 am

MonkeyGames

Bye! Anyone have a clue for the ly? I sure choked up after I hit 100.

8:27 am

BabbleRabble

I quite thought the comments thus far had conclusively proved the escape had already been made

8:27 am

FMitch

Oh Ata - sudoku done

8:27 am

LoriP

At least there'll be no right turns Haz......

8:27 am

Atalante

Darned proper nouns! Sealyham doesn't count! It's a terrier.

What a tough grid! This one makes me feel stupid...

8:51 am

redturtlehead

Hi All, this grid is annoying me, a frist I think for a grid.

8:51 am

kje

hi all - yes, I agree Jan - I'm feeling stupid

8:52 am

pinkhatlil

hello everyone!

8:52 am

Atalante

hi pink!

8:52 am

Hi Pink...

8:53 am

MonkeyGames

Hello!

8:56 am

flosey

good morning everyone

8:56 am

flosey

hello Ata, did you get my email?

8:57 am

MonkeyGames

Good afternoon.

8:57 am

Atalante

yes flosey! just had no time to reply and do anything with it yet!

8:57 am

redturtlehead

these words must all be the made up kind...

8:58 am

flosey

that's fine Ata, just so you got it - whenever

8:58 am

MonkeyGames

Most of them sure seem to be.

8:58 am

flosey

yes red, last few grids have had more than usual of strange words

8:59 am

kje

before I keep trying to monkey a word that may not be there - is the ha 7/40 realted to the ha 6 before it?

8:59 am

redturtlehead

This is the first grid that I have just felt very annoyed at though, so thats new.

9:00 am

MonkeyGames

It's a different way of saying the same kind of ending

9:00 am

jan

kje, it is...

9:01 am

redturtlehead

Phantom Hemodialysis.

9:01 am

MonkeyGames

Sure wish I'd hear from my friend about how her son came through his adenoids and ear tubes surgery. Anyone have experience with this? Kid was admitted yesterday at 7 am. Now it's 3 pm the next day. Should he be home yet?

9:02 am

ardilla

hi everyone

9:02 am

kje

aaagghh!

9:02 am

MonkeyGames

Hi Ardilla!

9:02 am

redturtlehead

Probably is home Monkey, may depend on kid and hospital and surgeon and everything, but its not a difficult surgery, especialy the eare tubes.

9:02 am

ardilla

i don't like this grid

9:03 am

redturtlehead

ardilla, its bad grid!

9:03 am

MonkeyGames

Their cars aren't there, that's why I'm concerned. I hope there were no complications. Kid has weird allergies. No telling how he might react to anaesthesia.

9:04 am

kje

good lord that was ridiculous!

9:05 am

redturtlehead

Well, I hope all is well Monkey.

9:05 am

MonkeyGames

I missed it. What was?

9:05 am

MonkeyGames

I hope so too, red. Probably is.

9:06 am

Anniebrook

hello again, kje, what was ridiculous, sounds like a clue

9:07 am

Anniebrook

this grid is not to my liking

9:07 am

redturtlehead

I need all possible clues this grid is so yukky.

9:07 am

kje

it was ridiculous how long it took to find the ha 7 after knowing the ha's before it -

9:07 am

MonkeyGames

I am absolutely stuck at 124.

9:07 am

kje

quitting h's they are annoying

9:08 am

Anniebrook

please clue the ha7...that one is giving me a headach

9:08 am

Atalante

a clue for the ha7 then!

9:08 am

MonkeyGames

Do you have the two blood related h's?

9:08 am

kje

I went to lickety at the 1/2 way point - and have only added about 35 since then - not helping hugely, but some

9:08 am

Anniebrook

no, not I

9:08 am

MonkeyGames

The birds? The ones meaning to chop and to have chopped?

9:08 am

Anniebrook

or not me

9:08 am

kje

I have lots of bloody h's

9:09 am

kje

how many ways can we say blood related today

9:09 am

MonkeyGames

The one like a good Guinness should be?

9:09 am

kje

the birds?

9:09 am

MonkeyGames

Farm animal birds.

9:09 am

kje

yes, got the alcoholic one - hmmm

9:10 am

MonkeyGames

The ones related to being healthy?

9:10 am

kje

oh, the egg layers, yes

9:10 am

MonkeyGames

Yeah, them.

9:10 am

flosey

ha7 has robot ending

9:11 am

kje

thanks - wish you were here 10 minutes ago when I was banging my head

9:11 am

flosey

sorry kje

9:11 am

Anniebrook

have the robot ending but it is ha 6/24

9:11 am

Atalante

I didn't try that cos it looked so silly!

9:12 am

flosey

same beginning annie, then go down

9:12 am

kje

it's the brits - they screwed us up by adding that stupid a... hae... we don't need the a!!!

9:12 am

Atalante

your fault for ditching it :P

9:13 am

kje

drop the a already

9:13 am

Anniebrook

ah, thanks, got it

9:13 am

flosey

well kje - we took the English language and changed it here and there

9:13 am

kje

LOL

9:13 am

redturtlehead

Well, one word I am convinced is speeled correctly the british way is Oedema. I insist that is the most proper way to spell it. Edema looks wrong.

9:14 am

Atalante

definitely, red

9:14 am

MonkeyGames

I'm that way about anaesthetic.

9:14 am

Atalante

and the blood words need their a's too

9:14 am

kje

drop the o already!!!

9:14 am

kje

oooh, had to look for that one in the grid - almost there

9:14 am

redturtlehead

I can never drop the O. ;)

9:14 am

Vicuna

Yesterday I kept hoping that "detor" would be the US way to spell detour.

9:15 am

flosey

oooooh yuk, it's snowing!

9:15 am

kje

LOL vicuna

9:15 am

Atalante

I can deal with most US corruptions. but I never remember fetor or fetal

9:15 am

redturtlehead

Oh Flosy I am sooooooo sorry for you.

9:15 am

kje

yes, there is no rhyme or reason to what we've changed

9:16 am

flosey

in Dec. or Jan, we'd think oh how pretty! - but March/April not welcome at all

9:16 am

redturtlehead

this grid is terribe though regardess of a and O and what not, just horrid.

9:16 am

BabbleRabble

corruptions? ethnocentrism rides again

9:17 am

flosey

I'm with you red, and darn, I'm in a hurry

9:17 am

flosey

hi babrab

9:17 am

BabbleRabble

hello, flosey

9:18 am

Atalante

well that was retaliation for being told the brits screwed up :P

9:18 am

Vicuna

For a defender of excess graphemes, Ata, it's a bit inconsistent of you to write "cos" instead of "'cause".

9:19 am

Atalante

instead of "because" even!

9:19 am

Vicuna

I was letting you get away with contractions, just not misspellings!

9:20 am

ardilla

hi BR

10:33 am

Uniquity

Not criticising, Deb! I always use the lsit and admire those who go without

10:35 am

debjed

10:35 am

nbjasmine

i cannot seem to monkey this y word- help anyone?

10:35 am

Everyone admires Atalante, it would be foolish not to.

10:38 am

Jacula

It would, Haz., considering what she does to her friends! (Thinking make-overs.)

10:38 am

Atalante

I have to admire Haz's pic

10:38 am

Haz1558

True. I'd hate to be on her hate list.

10:38 am

Haz1558

Handsome, ain't he?

10:39 am

Atalante

not as nice as George, but quite easy on the eye

10:39 am

i admire atalante, now, having seen your icon up close and your info page.

10:39 am

Haz1558

True. You're right again. No wonder you can be smug.

10:40 am

nbjasmine

not that i didn't before. its just now i know......more

10:40 am

Haz1558

We understand, nb.

10:40 am

loooooool I don't think I'd admire me. So its good that you all do

10:41 am

41 left now and I'm slowing down.

10:41 am

Haz1558

Oh we do, we do.

10:41 am

Haz1558

Keep going Jacula.

10:42 am

Atalante

my cat still hates me though

10:42 am

Jacula

I have to, Haz, 'cos the alternative is doing the ironing.:(

10:42 am

Haz1558

What height has the pile reached?

10:43 am

Jacula

Just under 3 feet, Haz.

10:44 am

Haz1558

Okay....

10:44 am

Jacula

Plenty of spac before it hits the ceiling.;-)

10:45 am

Jacula

*space

10:45 am

Haz1558

And if it's on a bench you can always gain more room by putting it on the floor.

10:46 am

Jacula

You know it's on a bench, well a trolley, Haz!

10:46 am

Haz1558

Well, let's be glad you're not in Terminal Five at Heathrow. That would be worse than doing the ironing.

10:47 am

Jacula

So, I read, Haz! We watched a TV prog the other night about how wonderful T5 was going to be.:(

10:48 am

Haz1558

I know! Underground systems and back up systems for luggage and everything. It all looked so promising.

10:49 am

Jacula

Maybe it will all be okay when the initial hiccups are ironed out. No, I'm NOT going to iron the whole of T5!

10:49 am

debjed

need one more N - have na4,5, na5,12, ne4,5 and ne4,8

10:49 am

Haz1558

In the meantime, avoid T5.

Haz1558

Make the na4/5 into na6/27

10:52 am

Hey everyone, Whats highest pointed word today?

We usually take a flight to London return and have open ended flights to wherever else we plan to travel. I think the next trip will begin with a river cruise from Budapest to Nuremburg, then a stint in the Lake District or Cornwall, followed by a week to 10 days in Scotland visiting relatives. --- hopefully this fall if the economy stays good for us.

4:28 pm

Dorens

hi all. happy weekend

4:28 pm

Scrabbler

It is too sad...for a premie to battle through problems but to have fragile lungs and then get wiped out by a virus.

4:29 pm

pugmama763

hi dor

4:29 pm

jillibus

Seriously, this snowfall is a danger today. There is a huge bridge game and lunch in the south end of the island (Flosey will be there) and the roads were ok before it started, but during the afternoon they became snowy and icy, with ice pellets (not hail) adding to the hazard. Some of the players live on a high hill (as I do) and if the roads are not ploughed and sanded/salted (and they probably won't be) it will be hard for them to get home, to say the least. No joke.

4:29 pm

Scrabbler

Hi Doren

4:29 pm

stidmama

oh. that is a latin plural, pugmama...

4:29 pm

stidmama

hello dorens! happy snow!

4:29 pm

Dorens

4:29 pm

jillibus

I'm glad I didn't go (couldn't find a partner).

4:30 pm

Scrabbler

A bridge game. Call the authorities. Get the police to transport players. The game must go on.

4:30 pm

stidmama

oh golly jill... sounds a lot worse than we had even yesterday. What are the chances they can stay closer to town if that happens?

4:30 pm

westford

an all night bridge bash sounds great

4:30 pm

stidmama

I am sorry you couldn't find a partner, but glad you are SAFE at home!

4:30 pm

hurshy

i usually clue it as "in boston" because not enough people know anything about RI :)

4:30 pm

westford

boston will do too

4:31 pm

Dorens

new england style

4:31 pm

westford

I've been away so long I hardly ever slip back
