For non-Canadians like me, Kinsmen is like Rotary, Kiwanis or Lions here in these united states. It's a public service club.

6:16 am

mattygroves

Morning all! (Well, just afternoon here) from a wet and windy Wraysbury. Please may I have stats for the N in the bottom row and the E in the last column?

No, definitely not

Thank you!

I miss it ALL THE TIME, and was so proud of myself for finding it today!

6:28 am

*Give Champ a gold star

6:29 am

ChampFit

Gratefully accepted!

My brain always wants the dollar pack Chinese noodles. I keep having to tell it "No"

MollyL

No little blue pills for 2Bit : )

7:14 am

BzznBea

Did the color goddess weave her magic, Molly?

7:15 am

BzznBea

My phantom today is veranda.

7:22 am

dan2bit

mine is nerve

7:26 am

MollyL

Yes Bea, she did. Now all I need is a face lift. Which will never happen because it never looks natural. Plus I'm terrified of doctors.

7:28 am

BzznBea

Yes, I think a face lift is a lot to go through for vanity.

7:29 am

MollyL

I have always been fascinated by hair salons. They are like a feminine group confessional. The things you hear people say there are eye openers.

7:37 am

dan2bit

wow monkeyed the ja6

7:40 am

BzznBea

Now I know my missing j.

7:43 am

MollyL

Oh, like the invisible rabbit with a J

7:44 am

dan2bit

or the convicted predator who's been in the news

7:44 am

MollyL

*Young people scratch their heads and wonders what I'm talking about

7:45 am

MollyL

Or Lee Oswald's middle name

8:46 am

bichon

Bea, a different clue for the 6/30, pls

8:46 am

hokie carla

well, bea, they moved our 9:30 game to 3:30 so we would have been better off staying at home and driving back today. now we have to waste time here

8:46 am

8:51 am

hokie carla

bottom row finished!

8:51 am

Scrabbler

I need 3 C's. And the J is my nemesis so far.

8:52 am

8:54 am

hokie carla

8:54 am

Scrabbler

TY, Bea. I have je4, 9 now.

8:55 am

hokie carla

ja4 took way too long

8:55 am

hokie carla

I have not had any this morning

8:56 am

Scrabbler

I found ja4 now. Seems obvious now.

8:57 am

Scrabbler

I passed halfway. Time to make some tofu scamble.

8:58 am

BzznBea

I have 8 left and I am missing an A...Can't believe it!

8:58 am

hokie carla

wow, that is odd

8:59 am

hokie carla

I only have 2 total! need to work on those.

9:02 am

hokie carla

well, found 3 more and then ground to a halt

9:08 am

BzznBea

Gads! Got the un5, but missed the re5...

9:08 am

hokie carla

thx, didn't have that either

9:09 am

BzznBea

People are out taking wood from the trees...

9:10 am

rururocks

with your permission bea?

9:10 am

hokie carla

like, people just driving by wanting fire wood?

9:10 am

BzznBea

Fireworks!

9:10 am

hokie carla

you should put up a wood for sale sign, quick!

9:10 am

BzznBea

Yes, people just driving by wanting firewood. They can have all they want!

9:11 am

hokie carla

and well done, what was your missing a?

9:11 am

rururocks

you don't have a fireplace?

9:11 am

BzznBea

am6.24

9:11 am

BzznBea

We have 7 fireplaces, but they coal burners, not wood.

9:12 am

hokie carla

somehow managed to get it, thx!

9:13 am

rururocks

7 fireplaces holy cow

9:13 am

hokie carla

IIRC, she lives in an old farmhouse - they had to have fires in all the rooms back in the day!

9:14 am

rururocks

iirc?

9:14 am

BzznBea

They only got one and a half trees down yesterday. They will be back tomorrow weather permitting for the others and stump grinding.

9:14 am

hokie carla

If I Recall Correctly

9:14 am

hokie carla

I forget you all are new to the internet ;-)

9:15 am

rururocks

i really wish you would stop doing that hokie :D

9:15 am

BzznBea

LOL!

9:15 am

MollyL

I am definitely not new to the internet. However, I take the time to spell out words because I think it allows all people to understand what I'm saying.

9:16 am

hokie carla

I knew that would bring you out of the woodwork

9:16 am

rururocks

some abbreviations are ok.. especially texting.. but for some reason i have a hard time figuring out what a lot of them are

9:16 am

hokie carla

I have spent a lot of years on forums and those are just second nature

9:17 am

MollyL

I keep encouraging co-workers to stop using FU for follow up. It conjures a different meaning.

9:17 am

rururocks

oh.. that explains it then hokie

9:17 am

hokie carla

what I hate more than anything is people that text u and ur. seriously, you're cutting out like 4 letters at the most, and it looks stupid.

9:18 am

MollyL

I love that my son, who is 28 and "of the generation" uses whole words AND punctuation when he texts.

9:21 am

hokie carla

my son says RN a lot which I don't know but assume with context it means "right now"

9:21 am

hokie carla

my son says RN a lot which I don't know but assume with context it means "right now"

9:22 am

rururocks

i'd think he'd be seeing a nurse a lot if he texted me

9:22 am

hokie carla

LOL, just told the other son about the IIRC and apparently he is too young to use that one (17). I guess it is only my generation.

9:23 am

hokie carla

hmm, maybe you're onto something ru. "I'm doing this rn" might mean something else entirely. haha

9:23 am

BzznBea

I'm off to bake a cake and work on finishing a baby quilt.

9:24 am

BzznBea

See you all tomorrow.

9:24 am

hokie carla

bye, bea!

9:24 am

rururocks

bye bea

9:26 am

rururocks

i sure can't find that ja 6 that someone mentioned

9:27 am

hokie carla

it rhymes with an H name - wallbanger

9:27 am

hokie carla

it is a hackney coach/coachman

9:27 am

hokie carla

I just got lucky figuring it out by points

9:31 am

MollyL

Okay, so far we have had imaginary rabbit, Weinstein, Lee Oswald's middle name and Wallbanger to clue that word. Anyone else? Poor Mr. Fierstein, no one mentioned him.

9:31 am

rururocks

oh.. thanks molly

9:31 am

mattygroves

My colleague's son's name? Mind you, that's perhaps too niche to use as a clue here ;)

9:31 am

rururocks

got it now

9:31 am

hokie carla

ha! did not see the others

9:32 am

mattygroves

I keep saying, when summarising something, the 'Readers' Digest Condensed Version...' and none of my young colleagues have any idea what I'm on about. I translate to TL:DR

9:32 am

rururocks

it was definitely annoying me

9:33 am

MollyL

And by the way the only difference between the Wallbanger drink and a screwdriver is Galliano.

9:33 am

hokie carla

Too Long: Didn't Read

9:33 am

mattygroves

Exactly that

9:34 am

hokie carla

was just translating for these anti-internet-acronym folks

9:34 am

Une needs the t-shirt I saw yesterday. It has wings on it and says "Rescue Angel"

9:50 am

rururocks

une is a freakin saint.. love her for what she does.. she's my hero

9:53 am

hokie carla

how does she not get attached to all the dogs?

9:54 am

hokie carla

and how is pervy not a word?

9:54 am

hokie carla

I guess perverted is the official version. ;)

9:55 am

rururocks

i think because they're designated to go somewhere she's just the harriet tubman of dog moving

10:00 am

rururocks

oh god.. i have to put in words i've already entered again

10:00 am

hokie carla

oh no. I'm on a shaky wifi at this campground so I'm sure I'll have to reenter stuff tonight

10:03 am

rururocks

i'm going to write to Dr. G about it.. it's becoming more of a problem

10:03 am

MollyL

My kitchen is in full swing today. I'm making beef tips for dinner tonight, gumbo for Tuesday and chicken salad for lunch. : D

10:04 am

hokie carla

yeah, it's really odd. I can't figure out how/when it happens.

10:04 am

rururocks

whoa molly.. that's a lot of food

10:04 am

rururocks

ive never made gumbo

10:05 am

MollyL

The roux is the most tedious part. It needs to be a dark roux, so it is a lot of standing and stirring.

10:05 am

hokie carla

yeah, I think the roux is why I can't eat it

10:06 am

hokie carla

flour in it, right?

10:07 am

MollyL

You don't have to use flour, you can use corn starch.

10:08 am

hokie carla

ooh, gotta go. happy cooking. 40 left for later. or more if they disappear.

10:13 am

rururocks

name that noun famous football player

10:15 am

MollyL

Favre

10:16 am

MollyL

Ah, back in the day when football was great and people like Favre, Montana and Elway played.

10:16 am

rururocks

ding ding ding

10:26 am

rururocks

so very true that statement

10:27 am

rururocks

although drew brees and russell wilson are pretty damn good too

10:27 am

rururocks

I love Mahomes.. he's special

10:29 am

rururocks

they don't come greater than Montana and Farve in my opinion

If people are entering words and they are not being taken, this puzzle s hosed. I think sometimes people "think" they entered a word, but perhaps they misspelled it. Especially if they enter it again and it is accepted.
