7:49 am

hokie carla

I hate grids like this with all the same letters together

7:53 am

hokie carla

I wonder if the 8 and or 9 are compound words related to the thing at the end of your leg, cause I sure can't find more than 2 words there

7:53 am

hokie carla

aha!

7:54 am

hokie carla

is this clue blurting?

7:54 am

JaxH66

There is a compound 8 starting with f. Not got the other 8 or 9 yet

7:54 am

hokie carla

I just found fo8/9 combo

7:55 am

hokie carla

so either you need to make yours pl. or the other 8 is also compound f

7:55 am

JaxH66

It didn’t like that 9 before

7:56 am

hokie carla

haha, you must've typed too fast

7:56 am

godthaab

Gaston!

7:57 am

JaxH66

7:58 am

hokie carla

8:19 am

hokie carla

8:23 am

MollyL

Looks like we are playing Jeopardy and not Name That Proper Noun today. Who is the antagonist in Beauty And The Beast?

8:23 am

HarryHood

heh ty for the 8/9. can't believe I missed that

8:24 am

hokie carla

ding ding ding! molly wins jeopardy!

8:24 am

8:25 am

MollyL

: D

8:26 am

HarryHood

blurting is hurting

8:26 am

HarryHood

today is mole day!

8:26 am

HarryHood

usually celebrate in school with lots of food. yesterday I sent them home with goody bags and we'll celebrate on zoom

8:28 am

Kaplan the Magne

don't forget to exercise your right to participate in the election, because there are still underage humans in these wiry structures...if you can afford it, have a good cause become the recipient of your largess. The challenging day will come in a hurry,. Also, think of those who fought in our interminable wars not as suckers and losers. That's as many clues as I can fit into the narrative.

8:29 am

MollyL

Happy Mole Day Harry
6.02 x 10^23

8:29 am

HarryHood

I love it when people say "go vo4" when they actually mean vo4 for my preferred candidate

8:29 am

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, and election night is usually a big happening, and maybe a few of us can sit 6-8 feet apart )compromise here.

8:29 am

HarryHood

I went libertarian again this year.

8:30 am

Kaplan the Magne

It's all in the Grid.

8:30 am

Kaplan the Magne

It's all in the Grid.

8:30 am

MollyL

Power to the Libertarians, right on

8:30 am

Kaplan the Magne

Libertarian? Hope you don't live in a swing state.

8:30 am

HarryHood

protest vote - a vote for the dems is meaningless in MA

8:32 am

HarryHood

besides the fact that I'm terrified of 4 years with a dem controlled WH, Senate and House.

8:32 am

Kaplan the Magne

Oh, I've done that in boston in the past, during the Clinton Years, but now I vote as if it matters. . Where in MA are you?

8:32 am

bichon

Good opinion article in NY Times today. It's by Paul Krugman. Ayn Rand kills Americans

8:32 am

HarryHood

newton.

8:33 am

HarryHood

I will have to read that - ty bichon.

8:33 am

HarryHood

she was a loony

8:33 am

Kaplan the Magne

Harry- oops- My terror is opposite of yours. My terror is to have more of what we've been having.

8:33 am

Kaplan the Magne

Ayn Rand- phooey!

8:33 am

bichon

Always read Paul Krugnan

8:33 am

HarryHood

imagine if the republicans had all three right now!

8:34 am

HarryHood

it will be just as bad, in the opposite direction

8:34 am

Kaplan the Magne

Anyway my narrative had basic grid words in it, via simile.

8:34 am

HarryHood

yah - I get it.

8:35 am

HarryHood

but the crazies on both sides need to be tempered. balance of parties is essential

8:39 am

HarryHood

I've overused NY times - it's not letting me see. I'll try to find it elsewhere

Good article

8:46 am

godthaab

Would I be correct in assuming most people here are republicans?

8:47 am

rururocks

i think it's about 50/50 god

8:48 am

godthaab

Just wondering......

8:49 am

MollyL

No, this is the most liberal democrat place I visit on the internet.

8:51 am

phaeton

mlf - think it is to4/4 but not sure

8:51 am

Buggie

Don’t forget that there are a lot of babble users outside of the US, where politics are quite different...

8:51 am

rururocks

it is to4/7 mlf

8:52 am

phaeton

could use stats for the right lone T

8:54 am

MollyL

That is true Buggie, but people outside the US tend to weigh in on our politics landing on one side or another.

9:35 am

9:57 am

HarryHood

10:02 am

HarryHood

I have to find a new show to watch. I should start Schitt's creek.

10:02 am

hurshy

biggest phantom ever: toot

11:10 am

hurshy

if anyone's around and has it, i could use a clue for en8

11:11 am

penquis

sorry, don't have it yet....

11:11 am

hurshy

hiya pen

11:12 am

penquis

hi...

11:12 am

MollyL

en8 en + what comes before res and mis on the musical scale + Lipton drink

11:13 am

hurshy

thanks molly, now i don't feel bad that i couldn't find it! :D

11:13 am

penquis

ty, Molly...

11:14 am

hurshy

and now i can't spell anything with my remaining missing words because that was my last one that started with a vowel

11:14 am

MollyL

It's a membrane in the brain.
: D

11:14 am

hurshy

insane in the membrane
insane in the brain!

11:14 am

hurshy

4/8 remaining words are S

11:14 am

MollyL

I was just going to mention Cypress Hill

11:17 am

hurshy

any sy words?

11:18 am

hurshy

no, there aren't, hurshy

11:22 am

hurshy

name that proper noun! region in southern Israel

11:24 am

MollyL

Negev

11:24 am

hurshy

ding ding ding!!!

11:25 am

hurshy

as you might gather from that, i am missing an N word

11:25 am

hurshy

she said and then pulled a peri

11:25 am

marksdolly

lol

11:26 am

MollyL

Phantom - nosegay

11:26 am

hurshy

one key in this grid is to try things that normally you think of only as ending in -y but alternately spelled ending in -ey

11:26 am

MollyL

Which is probably no longer a politically correct term

11:27 am

hurshy

i don't think there is any notion of PC about it - just cultural irrelevance, since people don't tend to buy them much anymore

11:28 am

hurshy

woot, down to two S now

11:29 am

hurshy

one...

11:29 am

MollyL

That little pointer (about the ey) is brought to you by Hurshy's Babble Tips. Enriching your Babble experience daily.

11:30 am

hurshy

:D

11:31 am

MollyL

Florists, especially ones who do weddings, use the term nosegay all the time.

11:31 am

hurshy

last S is from the one that has 22 so it could have a lot of possible second letters

11:31 am

marksdolly

nosegay has been my phantom word on this grid!

11:32 am

hurshy

i still think toot is more glaring

11:33 am

hurshy

s5, s5, where art thou my pretty s5

11:34 am

hurshy

aHA

11:34 am

hurshy

done

11:34 am

hurshy

oops sorry, i meant, uh, finished.

11:34 am

penquis

congrats...

11:34 am

rbud

11:35 am

rbud

and congrats!

11:35 am

penquis

i am taking a break.....bbl to find my last 40....bye all....

11:35 am

hurshy

it was an se5, as it turned out

11:35 am

hurshy

there are 5 sn if you're asking

11:35 am

rbud

no, was suggesting, but no point now, haha

11:36 am

hurshy

i thought you were but figured just in case...

11:37 am

MollyL

Damn, there she goes again. Just because you are finished doesn't mean you are beyond being sent to the PB

11:41 am

rbud

neener, neener, Molly said a word, too... ;p

11:42 am

MollyL

I live in the PB. Someone has to mix the drinks for all the people who get sent there.

12:29 pm

cybernan

good morning everyone -- we woke up to snow this morning and it's still coming down in big fluffy flakes 2.5" later. This is the earliest snowfall in my memory for the Okanagan by at least a month. Thank goodness I cut back the daisies, marguerites and peonies yesterday, but I do have roses blooming in the snow!

12:30 pm

hokie carla

oh my, morning nan

12:30 pm

moolingwa

hey nan...well we have you beat by about 6 weeks on the snow :)

12:30 pm

hokie carla

this must be eye parts I'm not familiar with

12:31 pm

moolingwa

perhaps so, didn't think it was that uncommon

12:31 pm

moolingwa

I mean it's less common that lens, pupil, retina...but still

12:31 pm

hokie carla

any sy? still have that one S on the side

12:32 pm

moolingwa

No sy

12:32 pm

hokie carla

maybe I will need the stat of one

12:32 pm

cybernan

12:32 pm

moolingwa

well they're mostly easy on that part

12:33 pm

moolingwa

If this weren't a world-wide game (and marvelous that is, too!), I'd think Dr. God was doing a bit of electioneering.

12:56 pm

hokie carla

I swear I had tried that 5 multiple times

12:56 pm

rbud

the 6 ends with an "also" word, then pl. guess you have them already, though.

12:57 pm

hokie carla

finally monkeyed them

12:57 pm

hokie carla

oh, but thanks!

12:58 pm

hokie carla

of course dictionary shows that as a proper noun

1:05 pm

jwr

carla, those dictionary pages have lots of empty space. If you keep scrolling down, you'll come on one definition that says "(not always capital)"

1:06 pm

1:17 pm

jwr

I was talking about that before...

1:20 pm

MollyL

Is it electioneering if you encourage people to vote? I thought that was just if you encouraged people to vote for a certain candidate.

1:20 pm

MollyL

And yes, I posted vote two times.

1:20 pm

cybernan

down to 17 -- bunch of s's, 5 g's a c and a y -- may have to list soon

1:21 pm

cybernan

True, Molly. I couldn't think just then of a way to put it without saying the word

1:22 pm

jwr

and while I wasn't looking, nan approached the finish line. . . whooosh, there she goes!

1:26 pm

cybernan

nan has come to a halt 16 away from the finish line

In some ways, I guess that is a good thing. During the mid-term elections, I stood in line almost 2 hours to vote. I am going to go for voting early from now on.

9:31 pm

at this point, almost half of all registered voters nationally have already voted.

That's a very good thing!!!
