hurshy

11:22 am

cybernan

going to list - stuck on last 19

11:25 am

hurshy

do people actually use fax machines in business anymore or have they become merely a spam-receiving vehicle and waste of paper?

11:27 am

cybernan

and no def. for it either, hurshy

11:27 am

MollyL

Medical offices still use them. God knows why.

11:28 am

hurshy

interesting

11:30 am

cybernan

medical and dental offices I go to are on computer -- they send pdf's to the insurance companies

11:30 am

MollyL

Okay, apparently one medical office's digital system can often not "talk" to another office. Also HIPPA approves of fax over internet. Which is ludicrous because anyone standing at a fax machine can read what comes over it.

11:32 am

cybernan

hokie carla

just took me like 2 hours to come up with a 2nd wordle guess and it was the answer

1:03 pm

hokie carla

apparently it was the only guess left after my opener, so I reckon that's why it took me so long.

1:51 pm

2:02 pm

Scrabbler

Get it done.

2:03 pm

hokie carla

my mom is in the hospital and I'm sitting with her and might have heat stroke in this room. holy cow. and she says she's cold.

2:03 pm

Scrabbler

DOes she have an illness making her feel cold?

2:08 pm

hokie carla

she's just always cold. but she has a UTI and acute kidney injury, so prob IV fluids making her colder.

2:10 pm

hokie carla

I just remember one time I had IV fluids they made me really cold. but I can't remember why I had them.

2:20 pm

Scrabbler

Oh, yes. The fluids are at room temperature.

2:23 pm

hokie carla

2:33 pm

Sophie512

li 6 was clued earlier..... the policeman will show you a ________ to pick out the criminal

2:34 pm

hokie carla

of course, thanks

2:35 pm

Sophie512

fl6 is short for stomach gas....... ends with pronoun for you and me together

2:36 pm

hokie carla

thanks again

2:36 pm

Sophie512

any time, I'm so far behind, I'm surprised I had those....not quite 50% yet

2:36 pm

hokie carla

2:37 pm

hokie carla

will peruse the chat

2:37 pm

Sophie512

4:59 pm

ch1212

thanks nrkii - for both clues. I'm particularly pleased I figured out your first one (math is not my strong suit.) :)

5:02 pm

nrkii

ac7 starts like one of the 4 2-card black-jack hands, but drops the royal last-3 letters and replaces with 2 vowel

5:02 pm

nrkii

that's me done... good night all!

5:02 pm

ch1212

good night! with thanks.

5:05 pm
