8:15 am

hokie carla

thought I had HOET but need the middle L. I'm assuming it's an LL?

8:15 am

BzznBea

lw

8:15 am

MollyL

Well, it looks like there is finally some closure in the Gabby Petito case. One good thing that has come from all this is the establishment of a foundation to aid in the finding of missing people.

8:15 am

welki

nope

8:15 am

hokie carla

LK? LS?

8:15 am

hokie carla

nm, see it now

8:15 am

What happened?

8:15 am

hokie carla

HOET!

8:15 am

mattygroves

Back after having a tooth extracted - thanks for the Hebrew money!

8:16 am

MollyL

They found remains in that reserve that they believe are Brian Laundrie.

8:16 am

hokie carla

did they find him?

8:16 am

hokie carla

wow

8:16 am

MollyL

Nothing official yet

8:16 am

hokie carla

speedy recovery, matty!

8:16 am

BzznBea

I don't believe it.

8:17 am

hokie carla

yeah, I thought the gators eat everything

8:17 am

MollyL

Did you go to the dentist Matty? Or just grab an ice skate and go "Castaway"?

8:18 am

BzznBea

I have to have a tooth extracted as well.

8:18 am

mattygroves

I considered the ice skate method, but in the end, realised the dentist was just around the corner...and that I don't own ice skates :)

8:19 am

MollyL

Good call then

8:20 am

mattygroves

I reckon so!

8:20 am

MollyL

Bea, it is hard for me to believe that a narcissistic physical abuser would take his own life. I guess we will see what they rule cause of death if the remains are really Laundrie.

8:20 am

BzznBea

Molly, yout icon reminds me of the guy who put a Grim Reaper costume on his drone.

8:22 am

BzznBea

I think he and his family set it up and he is living a happy life in another country.

8:26 am

MollyL

Oh wow, I just looked up the grim reaper drone video. That is classic.

8:26 am

BzznBea

Isn't it great!

8:26 am

BzznBea

I wan't Mr. Bea to do that with his drone.

8:29 am

MollyL

My oldest would SO do that. And love every second of it.

hi mael

9:21 am

mael

went to the sox game last night, we got smoked

9:21 am

mael

but it was a beautiful night at the ballpark :)

9:23 am

hokie carla

did you get cold?

9:24 am

mael

no, glorious weather! I was in a tshirt most of the game, it was still in the high 60s all night

9:25 am

hokie carla

wow, I think it was colder here. mr. homie went to a soccer game and had on long sleeves and a windbreaker and said it was a little cold.

9:25 am

hokie carla

I just stayed inside and watched the braves

9:27 am

hokie carla

that's cool you got to go to the game

9:28 am

mael

yeah, it was great. except, you know, the result but that's baseball for you

9:29 am

hokie carla

yep

9:30 am

Gitel

elks

9:33 am

hokie carla

is the LA8 a compound word?

9:36 am

marksdolly

nope it's not Hokie, it's more of the lat 4

9:36 am

marksdolly

and gm!

9:39 am

hokie carla

wouldn't have thought of that ridiculousness, thanks

9:40 am

mael

what, that's not a normal everyday word? a superlative for a thing that did not need a superlative

9:40 am

marksdolly

lol I totally agree, but I didn't make the word... LOL they didn't ask me

9:41 am

hokie carla

if you click the def it is an adj, so I guess in that case it is allowed, but still ridiculous

9:42 am

mael

oh english, you're so weird

9:48 am

hokie carla

I don't know why oatiest isn't a word

9:52 am

mael

i'd believe oatiest over oaten, personally

9:53 am

hokie carla

yeah, I always try oaty and all its forms. never works. 😁

10:20 am

10:30 am

penquis

10:30 am

hokie carla

10:34 am

rururocks

10:34 am

hokie carla

making a meal out of these puns, eh

10:34 am

MollyL

Ifiber guessing, I would say you are correct

10:34 am

11:00 am

hokie carla

I went to list - it's sk7. still haven't found it.

11:00 am

hokie carla

I have 3 s's I can't find with the list.

11:00 am

hokie carla

looks like the 7 might be a plural but maybe that's where I'm going wrong.

11:01 am

hokie carla

yep, not a plural

11:01 am

MollyL

Ah the dark and unsettling story of the little piggie who went to market (was slaughtered and sold for meat) and the other little piggies who avoided the slaughterhouse. Are the piggies still screaming Clarice?

11:02 am

hokie carla

sk7 - new to me - a crystalline solid that smells like poop but is used in perfume

11:10 am

hokie carla

I ordered a new bed frame a week or two ago from Overstock. I have been getting daily texts and emails, (literally at least once a day since Sat) from them saying it's arriving early and then it's arriving late. like, make up your mind. It was on a fedex truck out for delivery Tues and Wed and now it's back at fedex and it says delivery exception but they've rescheduled it for tomorrow.

11:10 am

rururocks

what's all this racquet about tennis in the chat?

11:11 am

hokie carla

thinking it's pretty hard to lose a bed frame and headboard on a truck so I wonder if they damaged it.

11:11 am

penquis

you're on the ball today, ru...

11:11 am

MollyL

I hate Overstock. I won't order from them anymore.

11:11 am

hokie carla

I may not after this! Though it seems like it's more fedex's fault.

11:11 am

penquis

i think they are not able to deliver everything as planned....like the Post Office...i am told i am getting certain mail but it doesn't show up until the next day....

11:12 am

MollyL

For a company that makes a lot of noise about their great customer service, FedEx can suck, at times.

11:12 am

rururocks

ah well.. I'd better start my day.. lots of account calls and stuff.. have fun everyone

11:12 am

hokie carla

speaking of tennis, I have to go get ready

11:13 am

MollyL

The post office is a mess. Our office mail is often three weeks late.

11:13 am

penquis

have fun on the court, carla....
