Nota good day here today. We had a water main break and are under a boil water advisory for the next five days. All restaraunts , coffee shops musy also close for the duration. We are lucky that I already had two 5 gallon jugs of water on hand for drinking as all the stores are already sold out of bottled water. Did not help that the alert was issued at 3 A.M

7:59 am

Sugrraleona

28 words? is this the smallest one ever?

7:59 am

crosshair

26, I believe.

8:00 am

crosshair

The largest was 744

8:06 am

crosshair

I made a jigsaw puzzle out of the 744. If anyone is interested, here is a link to play it: https://tinyurl.com/275zmw2r

Book Doctor Gwen

happy saturday y'all, diving in

9:40 am

hurshy

nooooo it's too shallow you'll crack your head open!

9:40 am

Book Doctor Gwen

LOL

9:41 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yeah, this is maybe the smallest number i've seen

9:41 am

bichon

I do remember 10

9:41 am

hurshy

i do wish doc would set a floor

9:42 am

bichon

and, of course, the infamous 744

9:42 am

hurshy

done

9:43 am

hurshy

i'm not even fully awake yet, but i'm done. that doesn't happen too often, lol

9:43 am

Book Doctor Gwen

halfway done, woot

9:43 am

Book Doctor Gwen

wow, I must have missed the 10 and the 744

9:48 am

MollyL

Yeah, the smallest was 10. All you have to do is check Lickety to get that number. I don't know why people keep giving other numbers for smallest.

9:52 am

Book Doctor Gwen

3 to go, oy

9:53 am

hurshy

i only use Lickety's "printable" list, so i wouldn't have known that you could check lickety for that, or where or how exactly to check it... so i will simply try to memorize 10 as a fact, like other facts. 5280 ft = 1 mi, smallest grid = 10

9:56 am

MollyL

It's fairly simple. You click the link under the grid next to HELPFUL Links which takes you to Lickety's page and scroll down once you get there.

9:56 am

hurshy

now i need help with another game. if you had to think of a word that goes after "beer" and before "feeling" (like a BEFORE & AFTER puzzle on wheel of fortune) what would it be?

9:57 am

hurshy

all the words i think of for beer do not work for feeling... stein, garden, pong...

9:58 am

Book Doctor Gwen

good puzzle, hurshy

9:58 am

Book Doctor Gwen

can anyone clue either of the E words? thanks

9:59 am

MollyL

It gave me that beer buzz feeling

10:00 am

Book Doctor Gwen

beer gut feeling?

10:02 am

hurshy

yes!

10:02 am

hurshy

eu6 clue at 8:22

10:03 am

hurshy

em6/30 i used the points to help me figure it out

10:03 am

Book Doctor Gwen

argh, i can only scroll back to 8:28

10:03 am

Book Doctor Gwen

working

10:04 am

hurshy

eu + tear (as paper) + vowel

10:05 am

varumba

OMG tiny grid!!

10:20 am

hurshy

10:33 am

Book Doctor Gwen

stuck hard on the eu6/30. Anyone?

10:33 am

Book Doctor Gwen

or is it em6/30?

10:35 am

hurshy

well i clued the eu

10:35 am

hurshy

only you would know which one you have

10:35 am

hurshy

if it was em5 it would be to infuse qualities into something. but it has an R stuck in the middle and idk what it means with the R in it

10:37 am

Book Doctor Gwen

must be the em

10:37 am

hurshy

oh it can mean same thing, or "to stain" like metaphorically like lady macbeth's hands

10:37 am

Book Doctor Gwen

holy cats, found it. Fireworks

10:38 am

Book Doctor Gwen

12:21 pm

bichon

tyvm nan firworks at last

12:28 pm

moolingwa

well, quite the counterpoint to yesterday

12:29 pm

MollyL

ri6 is a tool for applying salt or sugar to cocktail glass edges or a tool for cutting pastry edges

12:30 pm

MollyL

It also has a very dirty meaning that would make the pearl clutchers gasp

12:32 pm

2:25 pm

Kaplan the Magne

who wears pearls?

2:35 pm

crosshair

Difference is that with the other ri 6/24 you best not use celery salt. :)

2:41 pm

MollyL

I have never understood the purpose of celery. If I want celery and salt flavor in dishes I use celery and salt

2:41 pm

MollyL

Sorry, tyhe\7

2:43 pm

MollyL

Sorry, the purpose of celery salt (keyboard is going haywire)

2:43 pm

crosshair

Well, Caesers demand celery salt to rim the glass. Do not use the stuff for anything else.

2:48 pm

crosshair

Seems our boil water advisory is to last five days. :( made the mistake of doing Christmas shopping today. Combine that with people frantically buying up the last of the bottled water and it made for a crazy shopping experience. :(

2:50 pm

crosshair

They also closed all the restaraunts in town for the duration of the advisory.

2:53 pm

crosshair

The water main is repaired now, but the town has to submit water samples for testing over the course of those five days.

2:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Missing a t and two e. With the 400s I don't care as much, but we should be able to knock this off. Proof once again that even in a 28 word grid I cannot finish on my own.

2:57 pm

crosshair

Bet you are missing the eu 6/24

2:57 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Yup.

2:57 pm

crosshair

And the em 6/30

2:59 pm

crosshair

Eu+to tear something+ vowel.

3:00 pm

crosshair

The em6 is to stain something.

5:39 pm

MollyL

This is kind of funny

9:18 pm
