thx
9:00 am
MollyL

It is a miracle no one was killed in that ugly crash in Toronto
9:00 am
BzznBea

It's not going to get any better. Southwest is laying off a lot of workers.
9:01 am
MollyL

What with that and all the firing Trump is doing, unemployment is going to skyrocket
9:02 am
BzznBea

Not tRump. His DOG.
9:02 am
MollyL

Whatever, it has a very negative effect on the economy
9:04 am
BzznBea

about to reach our destination. later
9:08 am
jeepers

Trump's fault for everything that happens in the world I guess
9:08 am
jeepers

when in doubt, blame Trump. :(
9:10 am
MollyL

No it is not his fault for everything bad that happens. But he is at fault for a lot of the bad things that are going on right now. I feel terrible for all the people who are losing their jobs.
9:12 am
72 Temple Owl

wondering about the terms of these firings. the feds have mandated lots of terms for these things, and wondering if they are following their own guidance. the burden will be on the states for unemploymen benefits.
9:12 am
rururocks

especially near where you are molly.. it's a lot of federal workers losing their jobs
9:12 am
MollyL

And it has a very negative effect on the economy when a lot of people are out of work
9:13 am
72 Temple Owl

in other words, the porvate sector would not be able to get away with sudden terminations. many states have rules about this as well.
9:14 am
MollyL

I thought the burden was always on the States. In my State, you collect unemployment from the State.
9:14 am
72 Temple Owl

yes it is.
9:15 am
72 Temple Owl

guess i need to take a refresher expository writing class.
9:16 am
72 Temple Owl

large grid, lots of stuff to do all day and into the evening. time to get on the road.
9:19 am
jeepers

I am sorry they are losing their job, it is the fault of whoever set a bloated budget to hire and hire until out of control. I am tired of my taxpayer dollars going for wasteful and unnecessary spending.
9:20 am
phaeton

I've never used the no7
9:22 am
MollyL

And you know that all these people have jobs that are bloating the budget how?
9:24 am
72 Temple Owl

they don't work anyway, and they get all these freebies. everybody knows that. *eyeroll*
9:27 am
MollyL

Who doesn't work? Federal employees?
9:28 am
rururocks

she's being sarcastic molly
9:29 am
moolingwa

morning all
9:29 am

If you are going to ask for clues, it would help if you read over the chat before you do

11:31 am
penquis

I guess I could've asked whether she was sweet or sour after two hours of pickleball
12:23 pm
hokie carla

pen!
12:23 pm
hurshy

of course sweat is salty too, so if you worked up a sweat...
12:23 pm

12:24 pm

I'm getting a little salty about this grid
12:26 pm
hurshy

making connections is one of my brain's specialties
12:26 pm

there is also a 7 which is a bit silly, plural of the superlative
12:29 pm
hokie carla

i do not have the 8
12:29 pm
moolingwa

that was my missing one
12:29 pm
penquis

ty, hursh...
12:29 pm

12:30 pm
hokie carla

12:30 pm
moolingwa

toenet - a very small fishing device
12:30 pm
hurshy

well did you see what i said about the silly 7
12:30 pm
hurshy

oh you are not different then
12:30 pm
hokie carla

who?
12:30 pm
hokie carla

no, I had the silly 7. I needed the 8.
12:31 pm
hurshy

which seems to have been the same as other people
12:31 pm
hokie carla

no, they needed the 7 the way I read it
12:31 pm
hurshy

anyone done with Rs and want to give me an RO count?
12:31 pm
penquis

yup
12:31 pm
moolingwa

yes, I needed the silly seven
12:31 pm
hurshy

oh
12:31 pm
hokie carla

still need 5 upper R
12:32 pm
hurshy

well nevermind then lol
12:32 pm
moolingwa

completed that R
12:32 pm
hokie carla

but I have 8 RO
12:32 pm
hurshy

oh then can you tell me mool?
12:32 pm
penquis

missing one R from the top....
12:32 pm
moolingwa

yeah, I have more than that
12:33 pm
moolingwa

I have 11 ro
12:33 pm
penquis

i have 11 ro...
12:33 pm
hokie carla

found one!
12:33 pm
hurshy

ok then i have all the RO and must focus on RE for monkeying
12:33 pm
penquis

big lag here...
12:33 pm
moolingwa

perhaps the re7 is what you're missing
12:33 pm
hokie carla

and two more
12:33 pm
hokie carla

now just need 2 R's there
12:34 pm
moolingwa

no real weird re words off that
12:34 pm
hurshy

i have 4 re7 from there, 3 plural and one singular
12:34 pm
penquis

i think i have those...
12:35 pm
moolingwa

think I only have 3 re7 off that
12:35 pm
hurshy

you have to have 4 if you have them all
12:35 pm
hurshy

because i haven't done any of the Rs from the other two R tiles yet
12:36 pm
moolingwa

well I'm looking at them, and I have at least two off other r's
12:36 pm
hokie carla

well, if they can be made from either, they are from the top one
12:36 pm
moolingwa

actually 4 off other r's
12:36 pm
hurshy

i'm just saying, i have 4 re7 and my other R tiles say ZERO
12:36 pm
moolingwa

so yeah, only 3 off the top r
12:36 pm
penquis

there aren't 5?....
12:37 pm
moolingwa

oh nm, missed one
12:37 pm
moolingwa

4 off the top
12:37 pm
hokie carla

I have 3 re7 from top
12:37 pm
hurshy

look, there's re-bird-home plural, the act of something being like refreshed/regenerated, babblet plural, and re-examination-s
12:37 pm
hokie carla

so one of my R's is a 7 then
12:37 pm
penquis

perhaps four....
12:38 pm
moolingwa

still missing one r on the bottom, so a chance to make it 8 re7s :)
12:38 pm
hokie carla

oh, the exam words were my missing 2!
12:38 pm
hurshy

the trouble with re is that there are so many plausible things i try that don't work so it feels harder
12:38 pm
hokie carla

I still need 3 + 4 R on the lower
12:38 pm
moolingwa

indeed
12:38 pm
hurshy

like retend, retense, renote, etc
12:38 pm
moolingwa

2:47 pm
hurshy

pen said something about ad nauseam being a "sort of" clue and earlier i saw something about boats??
2:48 pm
moolingwa

yeah, I imagine it's causing a lot of co13
2:48 pm
hokie carla

maybe the -tion form
2:48 pm
hurshy

oh ok i got them
2:48 pm
hurshy

so not to do with boats other than the middle section
2:48 pm
hokie carla

2:51 pm
moolingwa

including the 7/8 pair I made up
2:51 pm
moolingwa

assuming you already have the dumb 9
2:51 pm
moolingwa

otherwise mostly regular words, and regular babbles
2:51 pm
hokie carla

yeah, I still have 6 C
2:52 pm
hokie carla

not sure if I have a dumb 9
2:52 pm
moolingwa

2:52 pm
hurshy

i have two co9
2:52 pm
hokie carla

that's the one you helped nancy with?

2:52 pm
hokie carla

couldn't get that clue
2:52 pm
moolingwa

2:53 pm
moolingwa

when peri asked for the one before the other 2, it got me trying dumb things
2:53 pm
moolingwa

co + lasts forever
2:53 pm
hurshy

that's so weird cause i tried that before, must have mistyped
2:54 pm
hokie carla

ok, now I get it, thx. what does that even mean?
2:54 pm
hurshy

it's a theology term, you know like, the father son and holy spirit are co9
2:54 pm
moolingwa

it means someone who lives with another of the same
2:54 pm
moolingwa

sounds like they don't get to, unless they do it together :)
2:55 pm
moolingwa

or perhaps one is parasitic and gets it from the other :)
2:55 pm
moolingwa

or maybe it's a role that has to be shared between 2 or more :)
2:55 pm
moolingwa

so many questions
2:56 pm
hurshy

i already answered it
2:56 pm
moolingwa

2:59 pm
hurshy

wow that is a dumb word
3:00 pm
moolingwa

what you mean in the present? or in the past
3:00 pm
hurshy

i mean i guess if you're being really philosophical or poetic...
3:00 pm
moolingwa

maybe you could combine it with the co9
3:00 pm
moolingwa

I mean it might be hard for them to reference specific moments in time
3:00 pm
moolingwa

seeing as they're timeless
3:00 pm
hurshy

yes
3:00 pm
moolingwa

ah, found my last t
