I have 14 but I haven't the foggiest about the rest
9:48 am
hokie carla

tried rafa just in case our favorite spaniard was in the grid
9:50 am
Uneaixoise

Not in the grid but playing in Rome tournament today at 11:00am!

bleugirl2

afro isn't in the dictionary? says who!
9:50 am
hokie carla

actually he is in the grid, sorry, just not accepted
9:51 am
mael

I've been playing for over ten years and I STILL try afro every time
9:51 am
hokie carla

bleugirl, I have tried that so often that I finally kept myself from doing it today
9:53 am
hokie carla

2nd row gray!

good morning all :)

hello....
10:00 am
hokie carla

howdy pen
10:02 am
cybernan

just read the chat - have to say, I would love to pay $3.32/gal for gas -- gas here has been $5.25 per gallon for over a year and will likely go up for the May long weekend.
10:03 am
hokie carla

well, at least you'll have gas
10:04 am
hokie carla

have limped down to 13 left
10:04 am
cybernan

It doesn't really matter though -- with travel restricted to essential travel only I just go to medical appointments and the grocery store. I will be filling the tank this week for the first time in over a month.
10:05 am
hokie carla

yeah, I rarely go places in my car
10:07 am
cybernan

It will be interesting to see if the inability of people to travel will have an effect on the number of new covid cases. The medical authorities here have narrowed infection increase down to travel between towns and areas of the province. They have been doing a lot of contact tracing to come up with this, so I assume there is some basis in fact.
10:08 am
MollyL

Seem this is why I say things are not "free" in Canada. No you are not charged for health care, but you sure do pay for it in your gas and luxury taxes.
10:08 am
MollyL

See...not seem
10:10 am
cybernan

health care is federal - gas and sales taxes are mostly provincial, the gas tax supposedly supporting highway infrastructure.
10:11 am
bonkler

quite happy to pay taxes to see that everyone is covered. Freedom to suffer, starve or perish from lack of care isn't very appealing. There are definite problems with our system but I wouldn't trade it for "freedom" brand health care in a million years.
10:12 am
cybernan

agreed bonkler
10:12 am
mael

taxes in Canada are not any higher, really, they just go to pay for things like healthcare as opposed to tax breaks for billionaires
10:13 am
mael

the US's lack of social services is obscene
10:13 am
cybernan

5% GST is a small price to pay compared to a 100k medical bill
10:14 am
hokie carla

my mom tried to get help from social services for my dad when she was taking care of him and they were like, we can't help you. so glad they paid taxes for that all those years.
10:15 am
hokie carla

she just wanted someone to help her find a caregiver
10:17 am
cybernan

10:20 am
hokie carla

hokie carla

yeah, that's the one I typed in and didn't know
12:54 pm
hokie carla

what do you think my 4 is, F T or F?
12:54 pm
moolingwa

well, they're not hugely difficult for either
12:55 pm
moolingwa

they're either common words, or commonly found here for the most part
12:55 pm
moolingwa

perhaps the "digital" t?
12:56 pm
moolingwa

or there's the t4 bird, which you probably never heard of, but comes up from time to time
12:56 pm
moolingwa

on the f's perhaps the mutt, or the too and...
1:09 pm

1:30 pm
HarryHood

1:31 pm
moolingwa

they're all relatively easy hoke
1:32 pm
moolingwa

in fact two of the ones I suggested one on the f, and one on the t...have the same two vowel combo in them
1:33 pm
hokie carla

I must've reached the point of no new words
1:35 pm
hokie carla

aha, the T was a a 5 scottish babblet (of course). so the 4 is definitely an F
1:36 pm
HarryHood

10 to go.
1:37 pm
hokie carla

I have F4 and F5, but you are going to finish before me at this rate, Harry
1:37 pm

1:58 pm
joym999

Hi all
1:59 pm
hokie carla

joy!
2:01 pm
moolingwa

yeah, figured as much
2:01 pm
joym999

spending my lunch break here, looking for those elusive 7 letter words. I only have 3 so far.
2:03 pm
moolingwa

well, stumbled on the 7
2:03 pm
moolingwa

new to me too
2:04 pm
periwinkle

hi folks tough grid for me
2:04 pm
MotherOwl

ha7 is a family to nightmares ;)
2:04 pm
moolingwa

yeah, just looked it up...sheesh
2:04 pm
joym999

family to nightmares?
2:04 pm
MotherOwl

Wow sorry two sentenses made into one = scrambled language
2:05 pm
moolingwa

it's an esoteric old-timey word...pt
2:05 pm
MotherOwl

I meant that the word ha7 reminds me of the meaning of nightmare. They might be somehow aquainted.
2:06 pm
moolingwa

the definition suggests so
2:06 pm
moolingwa

I wonder if it's where JK Rowling got the name for a certain character
2:06 pm
MotherOwl

You took the words out of my mouth
2:07 pm
joym999

now that's a real clue, moo...maybe I can find it now
2:10 pm
joym999

Got it! Def. related to the HP character IMO. One of my favorites!
2:11 pm
joym999

So now have 4 7s -- HA, GR, CY x 2. What are the other 3? I don't want to list yet.
2:12 pm

in addition to what you have
2:12 pm
joym999

ty!
2:13 pm
moolingwa

yvw
2:14 pm
joym999

are they real words or babblets?
2:14 pm
moolingwa

all three are words you would know
2:15 pm
joym999

sigh
2:15 pm
moolingwa

the h is a little tricky, not because it isn't a word you've heard of before, because it's not one that necessarily comes to mind when looking for words
2:15 pm
moolingwa

and if you want clues, I'd be happy to oblige
2:16 pm
joym999

thanks moo...I'll play around for a while before I give up in exasperation and ask for clues.
2:17 pm
moolingwa

trying to find my last 6
2:17 pm
hokie carla

was just asking that
2:24 pm
moolingwa

well, finally guessed it

OK, found the 2 other G7s. Onto that tricky H7!
2:24 pm

moolingwa

woot!
2:25 pm
moolingwa

don't get angry if you struggle
2:25 pm
hokie carla

do you want a clue, joy? HA7 or HO7?
2:25 pm
hokie carla

oh, from moo's statement I guess it's HO
2:26 pm
joym999

I have an HA7, so i guess I need the HO7. Not ready for a clue just yet.
2:28 pm
MotherOwl

those G words .. I mis-spelled them eleventyfive ways :(
2:30 pm
joym999

got it!
2:30 pm
MotherOwl

wow!
2:32 pm
joym999

Onto the 6 letter words! Only 10 of them, which is good for me. For some reason the 6s are the hardest for me.
2:33 pm
joym999

OK, here are the 6s I have already -- CA, CH, GA, HA, RA, RO. Can someone tell me what the other 4 are? First two letter only plz.
2:34 pm
MotherOwl

There's 3 g7 ?

2:36 pm
joym999

2:36 pm
MotherOwl

ur´gh.
2:36 pm
joym999

Oh wait, forget that past tense thing.
2:36 pm
hokie carla

both are past tense!
2:36 pm
MotherOwl

Argh, but thanks
2:38 pm
joym999

is the CY6 related to the CY7s?
2:38 pm
hokie carla

yep
2:40 pm
MotherOwl

I have the horticultural gr7 .. what am I missing?
2:40 pm
joym999

Well, you will gr5 when you finally find the other gr7.
2:43 pm
joym999

just double checking -- there are TWO ha7s and TWO ro7s?
2:44 pm
joym999

Sorry I meant there are TWO ha6s and TWO ro6s?
2:45 pm
hokie carla

yes
2:45 pm
MotherOwl

I did, Joy :) THanks
2:45 pm
joym999

2:47 pm
joym999

I can't remember what I had for breakfast, let alone a weird word that's appeared here before.
2:50 pm
hokie carla

well, hopefully my clue was clear as mud
2:51 pm
joym999

I got the GWTW reference but I'm still not getting the word.
2:51 pm
MotherOwl

more muddy than clear to me ... but then I do not know the books/films ... you allude to, so no wonder.
2:52 pm
MotherOwl

but if it's the rh6, I got it ;)
2:52 pm
joym999

time for me to get back to work. see ya later
2:52 pm

Had a strange dream last night. There was a dog running around my balcony. I had to call the super to come get him. There were also a pile of Cheetos there.
4:12 pm
MollyL

Didn't have to wait too long for gas. But there was a line and the first station I stopped at was all out.
4:12 pm
sukee

If you saw my balcony, you would see no one can climb up on it :)
4:13 pm
MollyL

Dogs and Cheetos and balconies...oh my
4:13 pm
hurshy

i bet a cat could, but maybe not a dog
4:14 pm
sukee

It would be dicey for a cat too. The balcony rails are not flat and my balcony does not go into another one
4:14 pm
sukee

Anyway, I'm moving to a ground floor apartment next month.
4:15 pm
sukee

Not that that is related :)
4:15 pm
hurshy

just depends on the motivation. i once attempted to have both cats and parakeets at my house. i hung the parakeet cage higher than i had ever seen any of my cats jump, but with the increased motivation of live birds there, marty jumped that high and was holding onto the cage with his claws. that didn't do any real harm but it must have scared the birds tremendously
4:17 pm
sukee

One of my cats has decided he is a aerialist now. Since I'm emptying shelves he has taken to leaping onto them. One he jumps from the top of the fridge from the top of the refrigerator which is about 4 feet away and in another room.
4:17 pm
hurshy

they are pretty amazing
4:18 pm
sukee

Sorry, jumps onto a bookcase.
4:18 pm
sukee

I always worry he will hurt himself.
4:18 pm
hurshy

odds are low, i think
4:18 pm
sukee

But, now they will have a window where they can watch birds and squirrels all day.
4:18 pm
hurshy

well that's always fun
4:20 pm

The same cat also snuck out into the hallway last month and I didn't notice he was gone until someone came to my door 3 hours later and asked if I had a grey cat.
4:20 pm

one of my first cats got out one time and i didn't notice immediately. she got out an exterior door, on the second floor, and down a staircase. when i went out on the landing and called her, she IMMEDIATELY came tearing around the corner of the house and up the stairs, like she knew she wasn't supposed to be outside! later in life she did not WANT to go outside. and in a place i lived with a balcony, when the weather started to turn nice, i put her out on the balcony and she just turned around and came back in. at that point she was like "NO. i am an INDOOR CAT."
4:23 pm
sukee

Well, he hasn't been so eager to get back out in the hallway.
4:24 pm
hurshy

my rilla (in my picture) would not go out of any door unless she KNEW it was allowed. she is such a little angel.
4:25 pm
sukee

She's so cute
4:25 pm
hurshy

at the vet one time the tech was about to open the door to the back area and looking to see where rilla was, in case she might dash out, and i was like oh you don't have to worry about HER
4:25 pm
hurshy

she is the most cutest most darlingest little wee thing
4:27 pm
hurshy

she was kidnapped by a bird of prey on her first or second day of life, wiggled free, fell, was seen by someone driving nearby, and brought to the animal shelter that happened to be on that very same road, where a vet tech took her home to bottle feed and foster until she was old enough to be adopted, so, she's a bit of a miracle kitten as well
4:27 pm
sukee

4:31 pm
hurshy

4:32 pm
hurshy

the one i mentioned who escaped was Mitten. i had originally tried to name her Pepper, as she was a grey tabby, but she was my first one and i just kept saying "Mitten Kitten" all the time so that ended up being her name. i was afraid when i got a second cat, what if i called them all that?! but i didn't.
4:33 pm
sukee

Tried to change my icon to a picture of the two but I can't see it.
4:33 pm
hurshy

so i had Mitten, and Cinder, who was a dark grey, and Marty. Marty was named after Marty McFly from back to the future because that was how his personality struck me.
4:34 pm
