Crud. What I get for not being able to sleep, lol.

12:06 am

lol

12:07 am

12:07 am

jessmom

ro7/8

12:08 am

amelu0218

think uhms should be a word...

12:13 am

hokie carla

ooh, 5th col gray

12:14 am

hokie carla

not seeing the ro7/8 though. are these regular words or weird ones?

12:15 am

Lizlin

To do with X-rays, I think

12:16 am

Lizlin

I thought proper nouns but apparently accepted.

12:16 am

marksdolly

I'm not seeing them either

12:16 am

SueMagee

Thanks, Liz.

12:16 am

hokie carla

okay, I think I know the word but can't spell it apparently.

12:16 am

Lizlin

yw

12:16 am

hokie carla

got it, thanks

12:17 am

Lizlin

Probably shouldn't have said that so early! Sorry if I've upset anyone.

12:18 am

amelu0218

*blank* tired, maybe? *rolls eyes*

12:18 am

hokie carla

certainly didn't upset me, I asked about it

12:18 am

licketySplitAUS

Clues are up

12:18 am

Lizlin

True but I guess I could've said less :)

12:18 am

Lizlin

Thanks, Lickety

12:19 am

marksdolly

got it ty!

12:19 am

Lizlin

12:23 am

Rainiqui

I've never seen that spelling of the ro 7/8 and I'm a retired clinical scientist - pathology

12:23 am

hokie carla

I was thinking there was an extra e? that's why I was thinking that but couldn't get it to work at first

12:23 am

Lizlin

Perhaps it's a UK spelling? It's definitely a spelling I know.

12:24 am

Lizlin

Usually with an umlaut above the o, making it a German name

12:24 am

Lizlin

An e after the o would be a way of replacing the umlaut.

12:24 am

Rainiqui

Strange because a ton of Canadians use UK spelling.

12:25 am

Lizlin

Just confirmed with google.

12:25 am

Lizlin

I checked with the e and got both spellings.

12:25 am

hokie carla

ok, that's the way I've usually seen it. TIL an e after o replaces an umlaut.

12:26 am

Rainiqui

Still, I've never seen it spelled with an umlaut in all my years of practice.

12:26 am

hokie carla

none of that explains why it's on Enable list as a proper noun though ;-)

12:28 am

Lizlin

Enable is a law unto itself :)

12:28 am

hokie carla

yep

12:29 am

Rainiqui

Agreed, lol

12:31 am

hokie carla

well, 1:30am. guess I will save the last 19 for tomorrow and try to sleep. TTFN

12:31 am

Lizlin

Sleep well

12:32 am

amelu0218

Good luck with that!

12:32 am

marksdolly

nighty night

12:32 am

grannyrose

cooe from me

12:32 am

hokie carla

thanks. we're actually supposed to get snow tomorrow, I better rest up. :D good luck to you, too, amelu

12:32 am

grannyrose

*cooee* sigh

12:32 am

Lizlin

Hi and hugs Rose

12:34 am

grannyrose

i think the ro7 may be nowadays considered a measurement of some kind hence enable allowing it with a lower case spelling. just a thought

12:34 am

grannyrose

{{{{lizgirl}}}}}

12:34 am

Lizlin

How've you been?

12:36 am

grannyrose

not too bad. did i tell you that pain doc is muttering about a nerve implant?

12:36 am

grannyrose

not happy at all about that.

12:36 am

Lizlin

Is that a good thing - not the implication that you're in more pain, necessitating that.

12:36 am

Lizlin

You just answered my question.

12:39 am

grannyrose

it involves passing a wire into my spinal canal. and yes lots of people have them, and lots of people say they are terrific. me....don't like the thought of anything unnatural near my spinal cord.

12:40 am

Lizlin

Yikes! I totally understand that. The final decision will be yours though?

12:40 am

Lizlin

I guess it depends how unbearable the pain becomes and how desperate you become.

12:42 am

Lizlin

10 left for later. Got to run. Guests arriving from the UK on Saturday - tons to do. Good to have caught up. Look after yourself.

12:42 am

grannyrose

the strange thing is that the pain this procedure would be done for, goes away when i lie down.

12:43 am

Lizlin

You can't spend your life lying down! Really going now - sorry can't stay to chat.

12:43 am

grannyrose

hi everyone - just a quick peek

1:32 am

rbud

let me know if you see a 6, haha - I have 70 words so far and not one 6.

1:32 am

hurshy

ag6

1:34 am

rbud

aha! def. shoulda spotted that, thanks!

1:35 am

rbud

well... unless it's the other ag 6 I just found, too, lol

1:35 am

rbud

is that a fish? :P

1:38 am

hurshy

idk what the second one is!

1:41 am

rbud

ah, it's a large rodent from S. America that looks like a big guinea pig. Not sure how I pulled THAT out of my ancient brain storage area, haha

1:41 am

hurshy

thanks, that somehow triggered the babblet recognition

1:45 am

rbud

not to be confused with a capybara, I guess. :D

1:46 am

hurshy

uh, yeah, no, of course not, never would

1:48 am

hurshy

i pity the fool who confuses a capybara and an ag6

1:50 am

rbud

hahaha!

1:50 am

hurshy

8 left here, how bout you

1:51 am

hurshy

of course half of them are the other four 6s

1:51 am

rbud

still need 30, taking my time. Not an easy one, this little grid.

1:52 am

hurshy

i thought maybe i could get an fa6 alt sp of fa5 but nope

1:54 am

cybernan

82 down - goodnight

1:55 am

rbud

ha! talk about triggering a babblet with fa5! (Made me check how long I've been here - 11 years, wow.)

1:56 am

rbud

night, nan.

1:59 am

hurshy

well, i went for the list, and there is an ho6 but i can't find it

2:01 am

hurshy

aHA

2:02 am

rbud

I found it, thanks - to you and morewords.

2:02 am

hurshy

darn, i really wanted to clue it as the testicle of an ovine

2:03 am

rbud

I was thinking pig private parts, but I like yours.

2:04 am

hurshy

presumably the actual meaning has no relation to that whatsoever

2:04 am

rbud

I figured as much.

2:04 am

hurshy

it is merely the ___ of the hickory tree

2:05 am

hurshy

do you want to know what the other 6s are?

2:05 am

hurshy

i finished

2:05 am

rbud

congrats! and yes, please! :)

2:06 am

hurshy

fa6, but not the one i had suggested

2:06 am

hurshy

and 2 to6

2:06 am

hurshy

which are unrelated to each other

2:07 am

rbud

thank you !

2:13 am

rbud

not feeling bad about not spotting all but one of those 6's, they are def. not common words.

3:40 am

8:09 am

BzznBea

Yes, but that is the way it is with Carolina weather.

8:09 am

BzznBea

It will not last as the ground is too warm.

8:26 am

MollyL

I'm so ready for flowers and green leaves.

8:32 am

Marc Freeman

9:13 am

amelu0218

I think we're getting to new percentage levels of WTH monkey words lately...

9:14 am

hokie carla

there are some weird ones in here but it feels like fewer than recent grids

9:16 am

amelu0218

Yeah, but there are only 105 words today, so there'd be less... % wise? Thinking close.

9:16 am

hokie carla

yeah

9:17 am

amelu0218

But my def of WTH monkey words may not align with other players views?... *shrug*

9:17 am

MLFAN17

sukee

9:36 am

hokie carla

9:36 am

MLFAN17

hokie have you been to high point?

9:37 am

sukee

15 to go, I need a break

9:37 am

MLFAN17

yes it is a confusing clue for this whatever word it is?

9:37 am

hokie carla

LOL, we went to Canada last Apr and I was thinking 6C was warmer than 12F

9:37 am

MLFAN17

yes I did that and word still not happening?

9:38 am

hokie carla

mlfan it relates to x-rays, but the way I'm used to seeing it has an extra vowel than this version

9:38 am

sukee

Take care, bbl

9:38 am

hokie carla

yeah, my clue doesn't work unless you move some letters around (hence why I said I was dyslexic)

9:39 am

hokie carla

oh, I have been to High Point for soccer but not really spent any time there

9:39 am

MLFAN17

rongent isn't a word?

9:39 am

hokie carla

fireworks! the chat break helped me find the last one

9:39 am

hokie carla

PB for you!

9:39 am

hokie carla

never mind, it is not that but same letters

9:40 am

MLFAN17

for me?

9:40 am

MLFAN17

congrats hokie

9:40 am

hokie carla

so take those 7 letters you typed and move them around and you have it

9:41 am

MLFAN17

but it starts with those three?

9:41 am

hokie carla

yes

9:41 am

hokie carla

so you should be able to deduce by looking at the grid

9:42 am

MLFAN17

I got it ty hokie and morewords

9:49 am

MollyL

Take the F off of not back...fRONT... and add the first three of not lady...GENtleman. I think it is some kind of British x-ray machine.

7:12 pm

MPittore

Ah. Is that due to health or other difficulties? Oh no problem, we all can chat...besides I am a native Californian!
