ah, there was a bit of thunder
12:36 am

and some lightning now. Rain has let up some. I have trouble sleeping through storms
12:37 am
dcseain

Lightning actually took out a traffic light pole yesterday at the light by the college at the front of the community i live in.
12:44 am
justafreep

was that the same storm or two different ones?

12:48 am
mich_pdx

yeah, lighting is problematic. We're having severe drought on the west coast - so lighting starts fires :( I was supposed to go to Lake Almanor next week, but it's engulfed in the Dixie Fire. And more lightning possible in the next couple of days.
1:18 am
dcseain

We get one or more storms a day here this time of year.
1:21 am
dcseain

and the pole was hit yesterday and fell.
1:22 am
mich_pdx

that's unfortunate
1:23 am
dcseain

i grew up roughly an hour from where i live now. At least one tree a summer always got hit.
1:34 am

thunder like distant guns now. (I grew up near a heavy arms testing range)

hi hurshy ty
10:34 am
hurshy

info: went to the list with 23 left. only 2 or 3 or those were fishy. so, there are a good number of odd words today.
10:48 am
MollyL

Apparently, Hurshy is no t like we mere mortals who often find normal words in the list that we missed
10:49 am
ch1212

No, she's not. Neither is Haz They are both wiser elders in the tribe.
10:50 am
rururocks

how old do you have to be to be a wise elder?
10:51 am
ch1212

lol ru! I think it's more the wiser part. I've been a babbler for ...18 years I think, and I still find lots of normal words once I list. lol!
11:00 am
hurshy

i normally have a greater percentage of fishy ones than that - that's why it's notable
11:01 am
hurshy

point is, people needn't fear kicking themselves as much today, since there are a lot of odd ones
11:02 am
ch1212

In fact, I just noted that Hurshy and I both joined in October 2005 (so 16 years), with me a week or so before her, which would make me the elder..... but, sadly not the wiser. ! :D
11:03 am
MollyL

I see, so we should all bow down and sing songs of praise to the wise elders. What does that make those flip people who call out impossible words two minutes after a grid goes up?
11:04 am

How about child proteges? lol!

Or saints... after all, babble was created by Dr. God. ;)
