I played bridge a couple of times about 50 years ago. I'd have settled for a poker game!

12:14 am

did you see who finished first rbud?
12:14 am
flosey

there were lots of clues jilli
12:14 am
rbud

I think it was dachef? I don't know if they show in order in the archive or not.
12:15 am
rbud

(did I spell that right?)
12:16 am
jillibus

It did look like fun -- I did a bit of it that night
12:17 am
rbud

anyway Dach was the first while I was playing earlier, not really sure if someone did it before that.
12:17 am
hootowl

If the rankings mean anything BR was first. Darts is about 5th
12:17 am
flosey

ru showed before dart, if that list is in order
12:18 am
rbud

rankings? or archives, that's what I was looking at, just wanted to see who all made it. Amazing amount of people, really.
12:19 am
ARB

I finished -- it took me 4 hours and I think I was 3rd or 4th
12:19 am
flosey

from the rankings, it shows ru as not having finished some grids
12:19 am
hootowl

A lot said they wouldn't do it and then changed their minds. It became a very, very large challange just thinking about it!
12:20 am
melonheadjujube

hi, I was done after a little more than 200.
12:20 am
flosey

but it was fun, everyone was in happy mood

Congrats, ARB!

4:07 am
Jayk

well i GOT up at 4:30 and it took until almost 11. Shameful really
4:07 am

4:08 am
rubyfoo

back, sorry
4:08 am
Jayk

of course i see today we are rewarded with no S
4:09 am

so that means I can get a t-shirt anyway?
4:09 am
herinfernallady

It is ok Ruby
4:09 am
rubyfoo

it was great fun, especially as we watched the reactions of people entering the grid
4:09 am
rubyfoo

the most profanity I've seen in here LOL
4:09 am
herinfernallady

That is why I logged in and said hi
4:10 am
rubyfoo

I thought it was great fun and it, too, was the most words I've ever gotten (380-something), but knew I couldn't possibly get any more than that without devoting the rest of my day
4:11 am
rubyfoo

now I will (rudely) ignore those upstairs, and try for a few words before lunch
4:11 am

Wasn't me but it is something i talk about.
4:13 am

I had never heard of it, but it was lovely
4:14 am

I do like that there is a cartoon around of a big fancy pearly gates and a boring field. The boring field is were the people and their pets go
4:14 am

in the movie, Chocolat, one of the older parishioners has a talk with the young priest about whether dogs have souls

but Alfred Molina is wonderful, too (just not exactly handsome lol)
4:22 am
herinfernallady

True
4:26 am
crosshair


Every dog must have a soul, somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances are buried with his pride.
Where he decides the good and bad, the wrong way from the right,
And where his judgement carefully is hidden from our sight.

A dog must have a secret place, where every thought abides,
A sort of close acquaintance that he trusts in and confides.

And when accused unjustly for himself, He cannot speak,
Rebuked, He finds within his soul, the comfort he must seek.

He'll love, tho'he is unloved, and he'll serve tho'badly used,
And one kind word will wipe away the times when he's abused.

Altho' his heart may break in two, his love will still be whole,
Because God gave to every dog an understanding Soul!
4:27 am
herinfernallady

well dog backwards is God so that says everything
4:27 am
rubyfoo

thank you, crossy, that brought forth some tears. However, chow chows are not forgiving. Kick one, once, and he will never come near you again or forgive
4:27 am
rubyfoo

there was a New Yorker carton say that about dog and god
4:28 am
herinfernallady

I got to hold a 13 week old fluff ball today. SO cute
4:28 am
rubyfoo

picture of a dog with a cartoon box above his head"dog = god and the cat next to him with the box saying "god = cat"
4:29 am
rubyfoo

Ruffino is now about a 25 lb fluff ball. After this past month of incredible weight gain, I can no longer pick him up!
4:29 am
herinfernallady

I prefer cats not a fan of the in your face lick lick lick
4:30 am
rubyfoo

a lot of people feel that way, but chows are so aloof that a lick from one is a big deal and Rufie is a licker LOL
4:30 am
crosshair

there is another that shows a cat and a dog being fed,and the dog is thinking"they feed me,and keep me warm,and play with me..they must be gods" and the cat is thinking "they feed me and keep me warm,and play with me,I must be god"
4:30 am
rubyfoo

did I say 25 lbs? closer to 30! and only 4 months old
4:31 am

4:32 am
crosshair

this one is still under 4 months and 45 pounds and paws the size of bread and butter plates;))
4:33 am
rubyfoo

and he'd probably eat the b and b plate, too, or at least carry it around....
4:34 am
crosshair

he is already being trained not to eat shoes
4:34 am

Rufie finds a shoe upstairs and then runs like crazy and takes it outside

6:23 am

A little over a hundred. I can't be held accountable for accurate counting on my first cup of coffee.
6:27 am
ivesy3

never got to finish, as licekty wouldnt show all of my words ,and neither did the word list. was left with 100, and too tired to try to figure out what words i had left... kind of su cked
6:31 am
MollyL

That happened to a few people Ivesy. What a rip off. I feel bad for anyone who worked and worked to try and finish and was stumped by a non-working word list.
6:32 am
ivesy3

really made me mad.. . but oh well, just a game .
6:33 am
Kaplan the Magne

this is true.
6:33 am
MollyL

Ivesy, what browser do you use? I was wondering yesterday if this was an Internet Explorer problem.
6:33 am
Kaplan the Magne

i sometimes think that the size of the grid affects everyone's psychological state for the entire day.
6:34 am
ivesy3

explorer 8 ... i noticed a problem with puttin words in after about 400 words.. they werent showing up as entered in either spot
6:35 am
maggiej

happened to me too ivesy ... stopped at 147 to go yesterday
6:37 am
ivesy3

stopped at 100 ... well now i have learned my lesson, with a grid that big, wont plan on finishing. obvious problems
6:37 am
MollyL

Well, yesterday was certainly an interesting showing of how invested people are in solving these things.
6:37 am
EspritdJean

yesterday's grid should have been a two day allowance
6:37 am
MollyL

Ivesy, next time there is a big grid, try using Firefox and see if that helps.
6:38 am
MollyL

I agree Jean, did you have a nice birthday?
6:38 am
EspritdJean

yes, but I still have four more nights of celebrations
6:40 am

Hooray for extended birthdays!

I agree! This has been a first for me

I had no time for such a grid, but it was fun finding words like telephonics.
6:42 am
MollyL

I don't have time for the big ones either Kap. But it was fun watching everyone race to the finish.
6:43 am
Kaplan the Magne

We are unlikely to have such a big grid for the next few years. what my little bit of fun was ...
6:44 am
ivesy3

actually words were easier than in the small grids. prob. becuz of all the extensions
6:44 am
Kaplan the Magne

was watching everyone start out when they saw the 744
6:44 am
Kaplan the Magne

i thought so too, could do no wrong.
6:47 am

7:42 am
uusue2

It was like being at a marathon and watching as people crossed the finish line. I had no interest in being in the race, but I was glad for everyone who finished. It seemed so important to them.
7:43 am
Mom

yes, jmc, it was. I really enjoyed it.
7:43 am
jmcnrick

i got it done to 500 left which seemed pretty reasonable since i went to a baseball game that went into extra innings
7:43 am
rubyfoo

half way today and a little more than half yesterday. I'm easily satisfied
7:43 am
jmcnrick

10:18 am

The Night Circus is a terrific book. Not spooky at all. Well worth the investment of a few evenings!

Hi Red, you will enjoy The Night Circus.
10:20 am

I can believe that Fuzzy
10:21 am
fuzzybunny

Hego, another great book is "Cutting for Stone" I can't remember the author, but I haven't been able to pick up another book yet because that one was so good.
10:22 am
hego

I rad that and loved it also.
10:23 am
hego

the Fistula foundatio is a real charity in Africa.
10:23 am
fuzzybunny

Yes, it was epic and wonderful. I had to go and learn more about Haille Sallese and the history of Ethiopia.
10:23 am
hego

They give young girls their lives back.
10:24 am
fuzzybunny

There was a PBS Frontline episode on the Fistula foundation.
10:24 am
hego

and being a nurse made even more interesting to me.
10:24 am
redturtlehead

I like front line, and also does anyone watch Independent Lens on PBS?
10:24 am
hego

I saw that1
10:24 am
hego

yes Red

10:25 am

I contributed the next day.
10:25 am

A worthwhile charity.
10:26 am

It's terrible the way women in Africa suffer.

10:30 am
hego

that's great!
10:30 am
hego

I noticed there wasn't a huge amount tht finished.
10:31 am
MollyL

More people finished than I thought would. I had no idea people would hunker down and commit to a grid that size. I guess I underestimated Babble Addiction.
10:31 am
hego

Me too
10:32 am
redturtlehead

I had a lot of time on my hands luckily. I never pulled up Lickety so I had no chance to finish.
10:33 am

without a list for long ones, I foget which words I've entered. lol
10:33 am
hego

I keep trying the same ones.
10:33 am

I feel bad for the people whose word list froze and could not finish. What a rip off.
10:34 am
hego

oH, that's bad.
10:34 am
redturtlehead

I like Lickety but I find because I dont have expert, I dont like to keep switching screens. My grid towards the end was very slow and running scripts, but really I didnt finish because i didnt...
10:35 am
hego

I use split screen
10:35 am
hego

two windows
10:35 am

Our libraries are run by the county. If school is closed, they are closed too. They are open on Sundays only during the school year and for a short day.
11:57 am

3:39 pm

I'm not surprised Alcatraz was renewed.

Glad they renewed Alcatraz, but I thin Fringe is the better show. Unfortunately, not too many people watch it.

3:46 pm
MollyL

You really have to be on your game to follow Fringe. This week made me think a lot.
3:47 pm
MollyL

Which is probably why people don't watch it. The general "want" is for mindless entertainment.
3:50 pm
bichon

Right Molly. I get confused too. Didn
3:51 pm
bichon

't bolivia have a baby last season. And wasn't Captain Broyles killed off on the other side?
3:52 pm
MollyL

The change in the time line, due to Peter being eradicated by The Observers changed history. The baby died and Broyles was never killed. It's confusing.
3:53 pm
bichon

Must have missed that. And Bolivia is much nicer this season
3:54 pm
MollyL

The baby story line was explained by the observer when Peter mind melded with him. I think that was two episodes ago.
3:55 pm
bichon

Where was I? Playing Babble too much
3:59 pm
MollyL

The episode where Peter melds with the dying observer was pretty cool. It explains a lot about the observers, who they are and where they came from.

One evening Mr. Rudolph Block, of New York, found himself seated at dinner alongside Mr. Percival Pollard, the distinguished critic. "Mr. Pollard," said he, "my book, _The Biography of a Dead Cow_, is published anonymously, but you can hardly be ignorant of its authorship. Yet in reviewing it you speak of it as the work of the Idiot of the Century. Do you think that fair criticism?" "I am very sorry, sir," replied the critic, amiably, "but it did not occur to me that you really might not wish the public to know who wrote it." -- Ambrose Bierce

Anyone can feel free to copy that image and do with it what they want. I don't know a thing about having t-shirts printed and I think it would be a huge task to take orders.
4:53 pm

I think that is for the best, Cross. All things considered. I believe Cafe Press will take an image and put it on a t-shirt. I don't know how their quality is though. Maybe we can share ideas on how people can create their own shirts. It will be fun to see them if it's done.

also fabric paints and crayons:)
5:30 pm
MollyL

That is a good idea Yarn Lady. My printer isn't high quality enough to do that, but for those who have good printers, that would be an option. I'm sure if we brain storm we will come up with lots of good ideas.

I've used the fabric paints and they heat set easily with your iron---I only half finished yesterday but it was fun with so many words available

My monkeys were elu4/6ed by the grid yesterday. They would not have helped even if I offered them a gold me 5/12. When my monkeys saw yesterday's grid, they ha 4/6ed their butts right on out of here. They said, "We don't give a di 4/5 if we get treats, no help from us today! We ha 4/5 big grids!" I told them that they were la 4/5 for not taking on a challenge. My ma 4/5 is telling me it is ti 4/5 for his turn on the computer. I did not ed 4/5 my story so there might be some mistakes. I hope you have made no 4/4 of my clues. I am going to change my ic 4/5 for tomorrow. Then I am going to go watch the Nicole Kidman movie Dead Ca 4/6 for the rest of the ni 4/4.
