is either of those ri words from the top corner R?

8:13 am

BzznBea

The ri8 is from the corner

8:13 am

JudyHall

Thank you Molly and hurshy for your poignant comments about the "My Friends" tab. I just eperienced that feeling of loss when I realized it's been years since I've talked to TraderKate.

8:14 am

hurshy

*hugs*

8:16 am

hurshy

ok i guess one of them must be from the top and one from 3rd row since that is all the Rs i have left now!

8:17 am

hurshy

violin, viola, cello, bass... hmmmmmmm

8:18 am

BzznBea

Baroque music

8:19 am

rururocks

that ri is for the birds hursh

8:19 am

hurshy

baroque is the kind that's way too fancy right?

8:20 am

welki

not all of it, hursh

8:21 am

hurshy

morewords to the rescue!

8:21 am

welki

my favorite baroque piece of all time is
https://tinyurl.com/bdcvssnf

8:22 am

hurshy

how about the upper D?

8:22 am

welki

but the fancy stuff you're thinking of might be more like the brandenburg concertos

8:23 am

hurshy

it's worse than that welki, i'm not thinking of music at all, just like, furniture and decor

8:23 am

welki

ahhhh, yes, the furniture and artwork were ornate

8:23 am

BzznBea

upper d is dr4

8:24 am

hurshy

ahhhhh what a silly thing to miss! thanks bea

8:24 am

welki

i automatically go to music - it's the only way i could learn history, by associating periods with music (and sometimes art)

8:25 am

hurshy

it's harder to make music tacky in that same way

8:34 am

rururocks

Yeah.. traderkate has been missing. I wonder if one by one someone is kidnapping us pretty soon the game will wind down to Hurshy and peri
:D

8:38 am

hurshy

so who's the chief suspect? Dr_God?

8:39 am

BzznBea

We don't know how many of those missing have been affected my covid.

8:40 am

hurshy

most of the people i think of that don't play now have been gone for much longer than COVID has been around

10:00 am

mkg

Still missing the 8s. Any help welcome.

Scrabbler

I have no 8s and one 7

10:03 am

Scrabbler, the en has a 7 that is singular.

10:04 am

mkg

On my anniversary we celebrate the day we were ma*****. That is ma 7

10:04 am

10:04 am

mkg

Change first letter from the ma 7 to p and you have a second 7.

10:05 am

Scrabbler

I have 4 7s now, TY.

10:05 am

mkg

When you do a scientific experiment you start with a pr 7. The idea you have or what you think will be true.

Hi Nan!

10:28 am

hokie carla

well, certain tiles are easy but others are not. hi, y'all.

10:28 am

hokie carla

no HOET for me

10:29 am

hokie carla

but I did find both the 8s on my own so I've got that going for me

10:30 am

Sophie512

good for you, I'm still on stage 1, finding the easy ones

10:30 am

penquis

hello all....do have HOET but only one 8....

10:31 am

hokie carla

I am not seeing upper D. stats, please?

10:31 am

Sophie512

I have all of the Q s

10:31 am

penquis

10:32 am

hokie carla

me too, unusual

10:32 am

cybernan

have no idea what that river environment is

10:32 am

hokie carla

duh, I feel like one, thx

10:32 am

penquis

someone earlier had the same duh moment...

10:32 am

hokie carla

now just have the bottom S for HOET

10:33 am

hokie carla

well, that makes me feel better, pen 😁

10:33 am

penquis

missing 5 from that S....

10:33 am

hokie carla

I need 10!

10:35 am

hokie carla

nan, I didn't know what clue you didn't know. I found the word but didn't know exactly what it meant.

10:35 am

penquis

don't have that river word either...

10:36 am

hokie carla

not sure what they call it in canada, but do you know what it's called when someone puts rocks in a ditch to help with drainage. It's a fun phrase.

10:37 am

cybernan

the ri 8 -- the only ri 8 I see is similar to a delightful town in Alsace, France

10:37 am

hokie carla

starts with that, ends like - person in their 80s is called a what

10:37 am

penquis

an old person... :o|

10:38 am

hokie carla

any age group 😜

10:38 am

hokie carla

10:38 am

penquis

some days i feel like people are speaking greek to me....

10:39 am

hokie carla

I might be

10:39 am

penquis

ah....got that 8...never heard of it...

10:40 am

hokie carla

what's odd is I didn't see it until the 3rd row R but it actually comes from the top. I know I would see more words if I could rotate this grid.

10:41 am

penquis

i think someone said that the ri 7 comes from the third row R, but I am not sure....

10:41 am

hokie carla

oh, I don't have an ri7

10:42 am

Sophie512

thanks for the clues for the 8

10:42 am

hokie carla

so that must be my last R there

10:42 am

hokie carla

no prob

10:42 am

hokie carla

HOET!

10:45 am

Sophie512

the RI 7 is Italian, music theory word (almost the correct spelling of a baby grand .....)

10:45 am

hokie carla

oh, then I have no chance. what are the points?

10:47 am

penquis

no clue either...

10:48 am

Sophie512

you have the beginning 2 letters, then the instrument spelled wrong = 7 for 32 pts

10:49 am

penquis

almost surprised that I got that....ty, sophie....

10:49 am

hokie carla

not seeing how else to misspell the intstrument

10:50 am

cybernan

I think we are thinking of two different towns in France, Hokie

10:52 am

penquis

E for I, hokie...

10:53 am

penquis

sorry....it's E for A....need a break...

10:53 am

cybernan

was called away and we definitely are not -- the town I was referring to is Riquewhir

10:53 am

penquis

never heard of that one, nan....

10:53 am

hokie carla

I never said anything about a town 🤣

10:54 am

penquis

need to get some lunch...bbl to find my 44 missing words....

10:56 am

hokie carla

well, I didn't see pen's correction and couldn't figure out what was going on, so I looked up the ri7

10:57 am

cybernan

found the ri 8, finally

10:58 am

hokie carla

woot!

11:04 am

cybernan

google riquewihr, pen, and you will find all sorts of pictures

11:11 am

hokie carla

speaking of french cities...don't recall the one being a word

11:18 am

cybernan

11:19 am

hokie carla

11:20 am

hokie carla

it's like slimy charm, bichon

11:22 am

bichon

slimy charm, don't understand

11:23 am

hokie carla

like that guy is real sm5y, trying to flatter her

11:24 am

cybernan

11:43 am

hokie carla

I love it when I'm making up words for one tile and see my missing (easy) words from another tile. 4th column gray!

11:44 am

hokie carla

well they have a website with a shopping cart, so looks like you can order from them.

11:44 am

hokie carla

not sure if they ship to canada though

11:45 am

hokie carla

12:29 pm

penquis

did you know that the NY Times bought Wordle?...

12:29 pm

hokie carla

yep, also just great

12:30 pm

hokie carla

yes, there were some complaints here about it going paywall, but then someone said it was still going to be free. doesn't bother us though. 😜

12:30 pm

penquis

true....also heard it will be free....there is a great article at CNET about wordle type games on the net....

12:31 pm

penquis

like we need another word game, lol...

12:31 pm

hokie carla

anyone that knows computer coding can create it. some of the computer guys on my other online community looked at the code somehow a few weeks ago and even saw the list of all the upcoming words.

12:31 pm

penquis

yes, i read that you can "see" lots of days of wordle...

12:32 pm

hokie carla

*waiting for molly to come in and how-dare-us for talking about other games

12:33 pm

penquis

chat is for chat....don't always like the topics....i just ignore what i don't want to talk about....

12:33 pm

hokie carla

yep, I disappear anytime covid talk starts

12:33 pm

penquis

it would be pretty boring if all the chat had to be about the babble grid....

12:34 pm

hokie carla

yep

12:35 pm

penquis

stuck at 30....i should just list...

12:35 pm

Sophie512

12:36 pm

hokie carla

27 here

12:36 pm

penquis

well you wouldn't want to have been me today....trying to get the ice off the base of my windshield so the wipers would have a chance to work....

12:36 pm

penquis

also had to smash the ice off the roof, hood and back window....

12:37 pm

Sophie512

Bless your heart!

12:37 pm

penquis

last storm gave us quite a bit of sleet before the snow came, so the base is ice....

12:40 pm

hokie carla

12:43 pm

penquis

12:50 pm

hokie carla

12:51 pm

penquis

it's a dumb word...not even in the dictionary....

12:51 pm

Sophie512

Carla starts on top, winds around and ends up in very bottom left corner

12:51 pm

Sophie512

sounds like a brand name for a fryer

12:53 pm

hokie carla

hmm

12:53 pm

Sophie512

Pen you have the one relating to bees

12:53 pm

Sophie512

1:02 pm

penquis

wb, nan...

1:02 pm

penquis

i am down to 27 now...

1:02 pm

hokie carla

the im7 is a strange plural of a strange word that means emblem or motto

1:03 pm

cybernan

the def doesn't mean anything to me, but I will look for the im 7 now that I know about it

1:03 pm

hokie carla

shania twain might say it don't im7 her much (change last letter)

1:04 pm

ajbns87

Nice clue hokie

1:04 pm

cybernan

1:04 pm

penquis

1:04 pm

ajbns87

1:05 pm

hokie carla

waiting for nan to say she doesn't know shania twain. but she's canadian!

1:05 pm

cybernan

yes - I know yo Shania Twain is, even though I do not listen to her music.

1:05 pm

penquis

ty, aj....that did it for me...

1:05 pm

hokie carla

pen, I don't think you need to know country music to get the context of that

1:05 pm

penquis

i also know who she is but know nothing about her music...

1:07 pm

penquis

geez, carla...."it don't im***** me much" isn't much of a context....;o)

1:07 pm

hokie carla

it's basically the same thing that ajb said!

1:08 pm

penquis

yes, but he/she said it with attitude!... ;o)

1:08 pm

hokie carla

so does shania! 🤣

1:08 pm

1:32 pm

cybernan

yes all of them are funny - interesting to see the ones various people think are the funniest. I just couldn't stop laughing when I read the winter boots story, but then I taught the younger grades, so it was very relevant for me.

1:32 pm

Sophie512

wow, I'm still stuck on that one, need to work on a different place and come back to the E later

1:32 pm

penquis

that was a funny story, too....

Bugsaw

well done Sophie. This grid stinks

2:09 pm

cybernan

Hi Bugs

2:10 pm

Bugsaw

Hi nan. Love those jokes!

2:10 pm

cybernan

ty - I think one has to be of a "certain age" to appreciated them :D

2:11 pm

rururocks

*waves to bugs*

2:12 pm

Bugsaw

I laughed earlier when the clue about a name for the police van came up. We always called it a Bun Wagon and that was not in the grid.

2:12 pm

cybernan

It's the one about getting back up off the floor that got to me --- that's when I knew I was old!

2:12 pm

Bugsaw

Hey ruru! waves back

2:12 pm

rururocks

the bun wagon is what they call the limos that drive around the kardashians

2:13 pm

cybernan

ri 7 please? -- want to find the last 14 before lunch

2:13 pm

Bugsaw

Exactly nan. The first time I was gardening in the front yard and realized I could not get up with any dignity in front of all the neighbours was mortifying.

2:13 pm

Sophie512

Nan,,, there are some earlier clues about ri7 italian musical term

2:14 pm

Sophie512

you have the first 2 letters.....next five are a musical instrument, spelled incorrectly

2:14 pm

cybernan

I saw that, but not a term I am familiar with

2:14 pm

hokie carla

mr. homie went skiing last week and fell down and couldn't get up. he was mortified. an older man stopped and pulled him up.

2:15 pm

cybernan

oh - got it - ty sophie

2:16 pm

Bugsaw

carla, when I was much younger I went skiing and fell into a tree well filled with powder snow. Even though I was fit I was trapped until rescue came from another skiier. People die falling in those things.

2:16 pm

cybernan

nothing I've ever seen before -- tutti, yes, but not ri 7

2:17 pm

hokie carla

true. I think he was just getting off the lift though. 🤣 ps - I have certainly done that myself when I was younger!

2:19 pm

Bugsaw

see you all later - off for a walk before the rains come.

2:20 pm

hokie carla

4:18 pm

Trifioso

4:18 pm

72 Temple Owl

good job!

4:19 pm

Trifioso

as close to a miracle as we are likely to see, lol

4:19 pm

72 Temple Owl

*thumbs up*

4:20 pm

Trifioso

i am having issues with the bottom corner e....which no doubt means it is a giant fish

4:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

i am waiting for my meal to marinate. then off to cook and freeze for the week.

4:20 pm

Trifioso

yup. there it is

4:20 pm

Trifioso

SLAP

4:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

let's see...

4:20 pm

72 Temple Owl

aHA!

4:21 pm

Trifioso

in my defense, I have been writing for three hours....

4:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have been goofking off playing games for three hours...

4:22 pm

72 Temple Owl

so no judgement here

4:22 pm

Trifioso

excellent! I cooked all damn day yesterday, so that is set for the week as well

4:22 pm

Trifioso

look at me, adulting!

4:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

*hand trif a margarita* this calls for adult beverages

4:23 pm

Trifioso

YES PLEASE!

4:23 pm

72 Temple Owl

well what i do is prepackage to freeze. this time it's teriyaki chicken and chicken fingers.

4:24 pm

72 Temple Owl

still have to figure out tonight's dinner.

4:28 pm

Trifioso

I am trying that as well. I did it with some wine too - I NEVER drink white wine, but need it for recipes, so I measured out 1/2 and 1 cup measurements and froze thouse

4:28 pm

Trifioso

those

4:28 pm

72 Temple Owl

you freeze the wine? I just let it sit in the fridge, does not seem to harm it for cooking.

4:29 pm

Trifioso

I dont need it that often

4:29 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have two lovely bottles i got for christmas. no one to share it with, and i would not enjoy it day after day.

4:30 pm

72 Temple Owl

i know what you mean. i've considered buying those little individual bottles

4:30 pm

Trifioso

I swear, that was another revelation! I never knew they were called anything but "nip" bottles, which is what we call them in the Boston area.

4:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

as long as i can stand the taste, i think it's fine. for my beef burgundy though, i need one specific variety and brand

4:31 pm

72 Temple Owl

wine makes a quick stovetop with chicken. so many ways to do it

4:32 pm

Trifioso

I agree! I am having so much fun with cooking lately!! Now that I don't have to cook for children I am getting all kinds of experimental

4:32 pm

72 Temple Owl

and obviates the nedd for a lot of butter

4:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

i have always been expiermental. but now i just hate cooking.

4:33 pm

Trifioso

mind you, poor hubs BEGGED me for a reprise last night - "Just a simple hamburger, please? No more cream sauces!"

4:33 pm

72 Temple Owl

and am bored with most food except carbs

4:34 pm

Trifioso

I love carbs. Never met a carb I didn't like, sadly

4:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

hahaha the white wine will help with that. a bit of butter and there you go

4:34 pm

Trifioso

wait, unless avocados count? Those things are ElizaBeth repellant - UGH! Put an olive next to it and I will implode.

4:34 pm

72 Temple Owl

no cream or milk needed. i do not like cream sauces as a rule.

4:35 pm

72 Temple Owl

i think it's time to remove chicken and bread it and make up the packets. before i lose all remaining ambition.

4:35 pm

Trifioso

go TO go! You can do it!

4:35 pm

Trifioso

I am not enjoying this grid - nasty little bugger

4:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

the teriyaki will marinate overnight and i will freeze half in the marinade.

4:36 pm

72 Temple Owl

oh it's all right. i got 20 jmore words while we were conversing. it needs fresh eyes often.

4:37 pm

Trifioso

the letter i is my nemesis

4:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

nothng we haven't seen a hundred times

4:37 pm

72 Temple Owl

including medieval english

4:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

and i will be back shortly

4:38 pm

Trifioso

take care!

4:38 pm

72 Temple Owl

btw how did yo umake out in the storm?

4:39 pm

Trifioso

amazingly well! For the first time in YEARS no loss of power!

4:39 pm

Trifioso

What a difference that makes!

4:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

yes, many things can be endured if we have power.

4:39 pm

72 Temple Owl

4:42 pm

HI everyone.. just found out some sad news.. Volleymom Dee passed away in November of last year. Dart let me know that he saw her obituary. So many of us really enjoyed her.

10:01 pm

Hushtones

Hi ruru all

10:02 pm

rururocks

hi hush.. welcome.. this is the grid.. it flips at 10pm pst and you have 24 hours to solve it. you find all the words in the grid to finish. there are clues below in lickety's list

10:03 pm

rururocks

takes about an hour mostly to solve them. although some grids are super large and some are tiny

10:03 pm

Hushtones

Hmm wondering how to upload a pic?

10:04 pm

rururocks

go to my account up on the right

10:04 pm

10:12 pm

bookwomen

It is sad. I always wonder when someone stops playing. I did enjoy chatting with her.

10:14 pm

rururocks

some people pass away and some people have full lives

10:15 pm

bookwomen

I am always hoping they stop playing because they get too busy

10:30 pm

rururocks

some people quit for a while and come back .. there's always some kind of flow here

10:43 pm

helenkeller

I'm curious as to what happened to VolleyDee. Does anyone know? She was my Bejeweled Blitz partner for many years, we had many good laughs. My heart is heavy. The world is less of a place without her.

10:51 pm

Hushtones

Hi all. I'm new here. I was referred by ruru.

10:54 pm

rururocks

10:58 pm

Hushtones

Can you rotate the grid?

10:58 pm
