dizgrannie

8:33 am

hurshy

dang it, i thought sure i had a 9

8:33 am

hurshy

if they ar6 the wrong guy, it's a misar6

8:33 am

hurshy

but no

8:41 am

MollyL

Letting him go isn't a disar6 either

8:42 am

hurshy

no, but i wouldn't really have expected that one to count :)

8:42 am

MollyL

Then why expect the mi?

8:43 am

hurshy

because it's a more plausible word

8:44 am

hurshy

we already have other words for letting go, like release

8:44 am

hurshy

so we don't need a di9 for that

8:47 am

hurshy

but i do need help with the top left S, i only have two of those

8:51 am

hokie carla

me too

8:51 am

hurshy

morning hokie :)

8:52 am

hokie carla

howdy

8:53 am

hurshy

i suppose we have the same two

8:53 am

hurshy

both very normal sa4

8:54 am

hokie carla

yep

8:55 am

hokie carla

I spent a lot of time on those last night and can't figure out what in the world they would be

8:56 am

hurshy

yeah not even smelt to take care of one of them

8:56 am

KatieMcG

they are the two I have as well

8:56 am

Scrabbler

Finally a big grid.

8:56 am

hurshy

yes, indeed, scrabs!!

8:58 am

hokie carla

hey katie and scrabbs

8:58 am

Scrabbler

Hello all.

8:58 am

welki

'morning, everyong

8:58 am

KatieMcG

Hello :)

8:59 am

welki

...and everyone, too :)

8:59 am

Scrabbler

No tornado in you town, welki?

8:59 am

hokie carla

hey welki

9:00 am

hokie carla

I also only have 4 from the other upper S. quest for HOET not going so well

9:00 am

welki

thankfully, no - there was a horrific one here in on july 14, 2000, 12 dead, so folks are a bit squirrelly when we get watches and warnings

9:00 am

Scrabbler

Good, welki.

9:01 am

KatieMcG

I only have 2 from that one as well

9:01 am

hurshy

oh i did see news about derechos over the plains

9:01 am

hurshy

oh i can help with the corner S, i have all of them

9:01 am

welki

some of those photos were incredible

9:02 am

hurshy

let's see, there's the mountains

9:02 am

hurshy

there's the name of the lion cub/king minus the letter that isn't in the grid

9:03 am

hurshy

you can add a consonant to the end of that one for another word, and then you can pluralize both of those

9:03 am

hurshy

then there's the game where you run fake people's lives

9:03 am

KatieMcG

thank you hurshy :)

9:03 am

hokie carla

phantom sidearm and warhead. must be in a mood.

9:04 am

KatieMcG

I have only just started playing again after years off so fireworks on a 380 word grid will be a stretch.

9:04 am

welki

*hands out flak jackets*

9:04 am

hurshy

welcome back, Katie!

9:05 am

KatieMcG

I forgot how much fun it is

9:05 am

hokie carla

yeah, I probably won't bother with finishing today. and welcome back!

9:05 am

Scrabbler

Welcome back, KatieMcG!

9:05 am

welki

i remember you, katie - another welcome back from me :)

9:05 am

hurshy

word i'm making up: sh6: the belief that the world would be better if it were run by women

9:05 am

hokie carla

9:06 am

9:28 am

hurshy

9:28 am

hurshy

phantom: herald

9:28 am

mael

my problem is that I always forget how to spell that word

9:28 am

Shirlockc

i didn't realize you can pl that word, i mean how would you use that in a sentence?

9:29 am

hokie carla

immodium treats various di9?

9:29 am

hurshy

are there different kinds of di9, is that maybe, like doctors would say?

9:29 am

hokie carla

I don't question plural words with enable, just try them all

9:29 am

mael

there are various types, I would guess

9:29 am

hurshy

idk

9:30 am

Shirlockc

but wouldn't it be different forms of di8 -- as forms is the pl?

9:30 am

mael

similar to why you can pluralize the an6

9:31 am

hurshy

yes, according to the WHO, there are 4 types

9:31 am

hurshy

so a doctor giving a talk about a treatment might say it works on two of the di9, theoretically

9:32 am

Shirlockc

i suppose, just sounds weird to say it out loud

9:33 am

hurshy

yes

9:33 am

Uneaixoise
