Thanks, Christine, and yes, lyn, it's unlike me! The last few and the coming days are unlike my usual ones too! Just over-busy.

2:30 am

Christine

Boy, this blooming machine has closed down three times in the past 25 minutes - I don't know if it's my computer or the nightly hiccup.

2:32 am

Christine

However, during my downtime, I found 33 words, so --

2:35 am

Christine

I'm not sure this is worth the aggravation -- I may just go play Spider Solitaire, and add to my list, to enter them tomorrow.

2:41 am

Christine

Is anyone out there ?

2:48 am

Christine

I guess I killed the chat. Maybe a nice cup of tea will revive it ?

2:53 am

Christine

The words came fairly easily, while I was in my downtime, but it's taken forever to enter them.

2:53 am

7:20 am

FMitch

It took me forever to get that 6 and 9.
wtg! sprite is hoping we will get a huge grid for the weekend after all the small ones.

7:21 am

LoriP

Usually after a cluster of wee grids, we get nailed with like a 500+. *sigh*

7:22 am

FMitch

Are you still in Autumn or is winter starting to show itself?

7:23 am

LoriP

Still Fall, temps have been quite reasonable for the time of year. We had the best weather Summer in a very long time. I hope the trend continues. How 'bout across the Pond?

7:24 am

FMitch

Short spates of summer with some very hot bits now 'tis Autumnal and forecast for the south is first frosts and for the v north first snow flurries.

7:25 am

LoriP

We just had our first frost here on the Coast on Thursday. That's amazing really, for the first.

7:26 am

FMitch

Maybe you are due a milder winter (fingers crossed).
Hows Uni doing?

7:27 am

Hi NB...guess sit has become a verb

9:22 am

Anniebrook

*it, not sit...typos

9:22 am

Nancy Boy

well, I guess I'm not complaining. this grid feels like I'm pulling teeth, today.

9:23 am

Anniebrook

the gerund ending helps a great deal

9:24 am

Nancy Boy

S'pose you're right, but I'm not sure if I can handle a grid with no 's' ;)

9:25 am

Anniebrook

I know what you mean..we get so used to making words plural or past tense

9:25 am

Good Enough

9:26 am

Anniebrook

Hi GE

9:26 am

right! oh, I don't know. must be something in the water around here - I have been especially dense recently.

9:26 am

Nancy Boy

hey, Good :)

9:29 am

rururocks

this grid could use a few more t's in my opinion

9:29 am

2:37 pm

rururocks

2:37 pm

hurshy

2:46 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

halo, kids! doing a bit of tweeting again, thought I might as well try to finish this!!

2:48 pm

wvteach

clue for the tr 6 / 18 please

2:49 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

don't have that one yet......

2:55 pm

Marc Freeman

Could I get a clue for re6/30, please?

2:55 pm

Nancy Boy

hi all. around for about 10 minutes, so I can clue. The tr6/18 is a chemistry term, means a compound with three double bonds.

2:56 pm

Nancy Boy

if you re6/30 something you prove it to be wrong

2:57 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

halo, NB!!

2:57 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

have ya finished this??

2:57 pm

inge

re 6 means to argue against

2:58 pm

Nancy Boy

Hey, George :) see you've been confusing my cousin :P yeah, I'm done, just had a free 10 minutes so I thought I'd stop in.

2:58 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

don't get that tr6/18 clue at all, then I'm not educated as you must be!!

2:58 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

god you must be bloody good at this then??

2:59 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

confusing him?? was trying to make things less confusing by explaining them--didn't do a good job of it then eh??

3:00 pm

Nancy Boy

not at all, it was like pulling teeth, took me ages! sorry though, I suck at giving clues. Remember A level chemistry like it was yesterday ;)

3:00 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

your not on the messy then??

3:00 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, well some of us never got that far, I left school at the age of 15!!

3:01 pm

Nancy Boy

ahh, he'll probably understand from your explanation! looked funny at first though. boy needs to get 'flaming' ;)

3:01 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

eh?? when did I say 'boy needs to get flaming'??

3:02 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

oh yeah, he needs to get that word? ha!

3:02 pm

Nancy Boy

yeah!! glad you explained, I had no idea how. Didn't fancy looking up the Korean for that!

3:05 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

ha, ha!! wonder if he'll understand my explanation!?

3:06 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

there's a funny bit on J's page!!

3:06 pm

Nancy Boy

oh yeah? I'll take a look - I should have coached him on a bit more colloquial English!

3:06 pm

Nancy Boy

he already gets confused by my slang.

3:09 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

who, J?? ha!

3:09 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, it's sorta important to know our slang, ha!

3:09 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

is there any slang used in Korea??

3:10 pm

Nancy Boy

yeah, just so he doesn't think we set fire to our celebrities here :P

3:10 pm

Nancy Boy

yeah, I think so - not that I know much of it, since my Korean is basic at best!

3:10 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

ha, yeah! he thought J was on fire!!

3:12 pm

Nancy Boy

well, being on yahoo with us will certainly be an education for him ;) he is such a sweet person though. Very polite; noticed he called you Mr ----- in your guestbook!

3:14 pm

Jellen

Hello...

3:14 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

halo, Jellen!!

3:14 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, NB, told him not to do that, ha!

3:15 pm

Jellen

How are you today, NB and George?

3:15 pm

Nancy Boy

Hi, Jellen :)

3:16 pm

Nancy Boy

It's just culture clash George, would have seemed very rude to him, to call you 'George' straight away!

3:17 pm

Nancy Boy

I'm reet Jellen :) and yourself?

3:17 pm

Marc Freeman

I have been on the phone and have still not gotten re6/30 is it a compound word so it would be and re + 4 letter word?

3:18 pm

Jellen

I'm good...found a friend to go with me tonight, so concerns allayed!

3:20 pm

Nancy Boy

It's not a compound word, no. think re + a woodwind instrument that makes sound when you blow air over the hole - minus an 'l'. I'm a terrible cluer and that's all I can think of!

3:21 pm

Marc Freeman

I finally got thanks all for bearing with me.

3:21 pm

LeslieAnn

the one i have is not compound, marc - to re**** an argument

3:21 pm

Jellen

re 6/30 = re* (sports official) + *** (slang for a SUV)

3:21 pm

Marc Freeman

Got to go thanks

3:21 pm

Jellen

Hi, LA, bye Marc...

3:25 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

sorry, NB, been a bit busy tweeting!!

3:25 pm

Jellen

George, you always seem to disappear when I enter chat...I'm getting a complex!

3:26 pm

Jellen

:-)

3:26 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

eh, Jellen?? I was busy tweeting on Twitter and updating my yahoo page at the same time!!

3:26 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

and still am!!

3:26 pm

Nancy Boy

No worries George, I'll have to be off in a sec anyway - Frank just got in and I'm up for a cuddle on the sofa with the cats!

3:27 pm

Jellen

Okay, then...

3:27 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

oh yeah, I see

3:27 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

I'm always busy when I'm on here, so there's gonna be lots of lapses, you know how it is! folk like to tweet and DM messages to me they expect responses to, silly of them, lol!

3:28 pm

Jellen

lol

3:28 pm

Nancy Boy

lol! too popular ;)

3:28 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

I still have 38 left, should probably give up!!

3:28 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, that's it, dunno why?!?

3:29 pm

Nancy Boy

that's how I felt about last night's grid. Literally took J giving me clues word by word! And today's is nasty too.

3:29 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah? well you got today's all right??

3:30 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

so you must be a lot smarter than me, cos I'm not!!

3:30 pm

Jellen

3:30 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

3:31 pm

Jellen

3:31 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

3:31 pm

Nancy Boy

3:31 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

3:31 pm

Jellen

Oh, got it...Thanks both!

3:31 pm

Jellen

3:32 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

I yell lots of stuff but never that, or they might wanna lock me away, lol!

3:32 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

the Boy's gone mental!! yeah, could just see it!

3:33 pm

Jellen

lol

3:33 pm

Nancy Boy

Well, just think I shoulda paid more attention in biology, if my first thought is music and not wombs!

3:34 pm

Nancy Boy

Cracking album though, remember "All Apologies" was the first song I ever taught myself on guitar!

3:35 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, probably so NB!!

3:36 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

well, can't say much for your musical taste, lol!

3:38 pm

Nancy Boy

Hah! Well wish I was old enough to have experienced Nirvana when they were still going, Cobain died when I was four.

3:38 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

you didn't miss much, ha!

3:38 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

not exactly my cup of tea!

3:39 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

phantom: eternity

3:39 pm

Jellen

Oh, Nancy, you make me feel old...

3:40 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

yeah, me too and bet I'm a lot older!!

3:40 pm

Nancy Boy

Totally my cup of tea. Bleak and angry ;) Nah, I like all sorts. Wish I could've shifted my electric guitar and CD collection with me when I left home!

3:40 pm

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

oh yeah, I'm 3 years older than you, Jellen

3:41 pm

Jellen

Not so old, then, George!

3:43 pm

Nancy Boy

3:46 pm

Jellen

So sad, Jesse...

3:46 pm

Neliamne

I'd like to suggest Keith Caputo to you NB. If you haven't heard him before, you might like him if Cobain is good to your ear.

3:47 pm

Jellen

Hello, Niliamne

3:47 pm

Nancy Boy

well, I was gonna ask my sister if she could send some of my stuff on, but my parents dumped it! So I'm putting a positive spin on it and calling it a fresh start.

3:47 pm

Neliamne

Hi Jellen

3:48 pm

Nancy Boy

Hi Neliamne...I'll check him out, always on the lookout for new music to love!

3:52 pm

Nancy Boy

GÐµÐ¾Ð³gÐµ

Nancy Boy

4:49 pm

mich_pdx

he was a great president. It's too bad that the media has made physical looks such an important part of being a good leader. And not just "good looks" but the sense of "fitness"

4:50 pm

cosdem

4:50 pm

cosdem

4:51 pm

cosdem

my very first boss was an unatrractive woman who ran for governor.. her opponent called her "a tax cheat. the truth is as ugly as she is"

6:14 pm

Pinikula

6:14 pm

gortmold

prefix meaning 3 + the ***my of my ***my is my friend

6:17 pm

Pinikula

wow...been work-burnt, camo boy is doing well, NWD is stil that, and it's wet...

6:17 pm

Pinikula

...oh, and don't forget cool...

6:18 pm

stidmama

it's sunny here (for today) and was very chilly last night. I turned on the furnace for the first time

6:18 pm

Pinikula

I'm about ready to get out the winter jammies at night...

6:19 pm

stidmama

yep. tom put a 'nother blankie on last night too --

6:19 pm

Pinikula

oh, and don't forget sleep socks...may not have enough of those!

6:19 pm

stidmama

I am going to plug in the heater for the bathroom before Monday so I don't freeze when I am getting ready in the morning.

6:19 pm

Dorens

heat has been on here and winter jammies the last two nights

6:20 pm

Pinikula

If I could just get Koda to lay down on my toes, I could hold out on the blankets and heater a little longer!

6:21 pm

stidmama

hey doren! ((hugs))

*image of a beagle a) holding still long enough to warm anyone's toes and b) actually sleeping while on said toes*

6:22 pm

Dorens

getting ready to go outside in the hottub. most of the summer it was too warm to appreciate it. how's school stid?

6:23 pm

Pinikula

I keep imagining it, too, stid...cuz it sure hasn't happened!

6:23 pm

stidmama

*hides under laptop to avoid talking about school*

(don't get me started doren)

6:23 pm

stidmama

LOL pini!

6:23 pm

Pinikula

oooooh, I'm jealous, dorens!

6:23 pm

Dorens

hope the kids are treating yu well, that's all

6:23 pm

stidmama

I would just be happy for a bathtub that is the right size for me and with enough water to actually be warm when filled...

6:24 pm

stidmama

had a rough week in that department doren, and I think I know what it isn't working but there is not a d4 thing I can do about it.

6:24 pm

Dorens

about ten years ago the stone patio outside my bck door was all coming up and needed to be replaced and it was so expensive, i had to take out a pension loan. My son said, as long as you're borrowing, borrow some more and put in the hottub you know you've always wanted. i thought he was crazy. but what a good idea it turned out to be

6:24 pm

stidmama

three weeks to go... will sleep for a week when I am done

6:24 pm

Pinikula

try finding a bathtub I can 'relax' in stid...not sure they're out there unless one lives in a mansion or a home decorating show room!

6:24 pm

PAV3

tsk tsk...it's still nineties in the day and sixties at night..it might be a bit chilly..bu no blankets yet...

6:24 pm

stidmama

your children are pretty smart, doren1

6:25 pm

Pinikula

no kidding, dorens! clever son

6:25 pm

Dorens

middle school kids are so hard to deal with these days, but you'll win them over. give it time

6:25 pm

stidmama

I would be happy -- deliriously so -- with a 5' long old-fashioned claw-foot tub such as I had when in college. The ONLY redeeming feature of that rat hole slum apartment I lived in

6:25 pm

Dorens

the hot tub is tiny... a three seater, nestled in beside the stone patio and the stone wall up the hill. it is so unobtrusive and cute

6:26 pm

stidmama

*ignoring PAV for obvious mean streak*

6:27 pm

PAV3

my comfort zone is in warm sunny climes...I didn't mean to offend anyone...peanut butter cookies anyone?

6:27 pm

Dorens

i'd love some, thanks pav

6:27 pm

PAV3

raspberry lemonade?

6:27 pm

stidmama

oh well, just passed halfway. back to coding data. I am enjoying this piece... LOL perhaps I ought to revert to admin assistant.

6:27 pm

Pinikula

<-- I prefer cooler climates...just the season didn't go from hot one day to cold the next...a little shocking on the system...

6:28 pm

stidmama

mmmm. PAV, you are my new bestest friend. *grateful look as I wander off with refreshments*

*micro-poof*

6:28 pm

stidmama

mmmm. PAV, you are my new bestest friend. *grateful look as I wander off with refreshments*

*micro-poof*

6:28 pm

Dorens

i like all seasons, just wish winter were one month shorter

6:28 pm

stidmama

back in a bit. (and I swear I didn't hit that key twice!)

6:28 pm

Dorens

like, if spring really DID start march 21, that would be just lovely

6:29 pm

Pinikula

3 months each...that's all I ask for...

6:29 pm

Dorens

yes, pini, but march always feels like winter here.. snow and cold and everything is bare and ugly

6:29 pm

Pinikula

oh, wait...make that 2 months each with a transitional month in between!!!

6:30 pm

PAV3

stid...af5 5 classes in calc, I found that even for teaching, one doesn't need the higher math 'cept t show that one can do it for testing purposes only... My mom hated algebra when she was in teaching school, and af5 retiring found it wasn't needed either...granted her degree was in bilngual elem ed...

6:30 pm

Dorens

i could go for that... seems we haven't had much transition lately.... go straight from winter into spring... last week i was in shorts and this week feels like winter

6:30 pm

Pinikula

and then some, dorens..

6:32 pm

PAV3

I think we're having fall now...hence the cooler weather and spots of rain...(cooler being 90s) "fall" fall starts in Dec and lasts for one month before winter arrives for two months and then spring is on for one month and summer is here again

6:32 pm

Dorens

well, hot tub (and my buddy) beckons... later, guys

6:32 pm

Pinikula

enjoy dorens
