5:42 am

ItalianGreyhound

5:42 am

Scrabbler

Good monring, IG.

5:43 am

ItalianGreyhound

Hi, Scrab

5:44 am

Scrabbler

How is life going?

5:44 am

ItalianGreyhound

nice grid, but sure was looking for the "est" andings at first. very wet here - strange weather

5:46 am

Scrabbler

I have started on the left half--lots of words so far. Nice spring here so far.

5:46 am

ItalianGreyhound

theres no jet stream over most of the US now - the weather doesnt seem to know where to go

5:47 am

Scrabbler

It didn't snow on Mother's Day so that was nice.

5:49 am

ItalianGreyhound

i have a nice big water snake living here now - it crosses over the patio to get to the lake

5:50 am

Scrabbler

How big?

5:50 am

ItalianGreyhound

diamond back water snake (non-poison.) about 6 feet long

5:51 am

Scrabbler

Yikes!

5:51 am

ItalianGreyhound

it slithers down the stairs to the lake - very cool

5:52 am

Scrabbler

My sister is backpacking in northern Virginia and saw a big lizard sunbathing on a rock. Eastern Fence Lizard.

5:53 am

ItalianGreyhound

lizards are cool - they sit on my car, when its not garaged.

5:53 am

Scrabbler

I have seen then in Florida but I didn't know they were in northern VA. I did some reading.

5:54 am

ItalianGreyhound

a few have gone for a ride, hanging on to the hood

5:58 am

Scrabbler

Oh, boy. Well, we have black bears. Mostly with my neighbors across the street because a creek runs behind them. The bears follow the creek.

5:59 am

ItalianGreyhound

bears def. trump my snake and lizards

6:02 am

Scrabbler

I have had bears in my yard twice. First glance you think it's a black Newfoundland.

6:06 am

ItalianGreyhound

what are they looking to eat?

6:07 am

Scrabbler

Bird food--seeds and suet.

6:08 am

Scrabbler

I have to get to work. Enjoy the day.

6:08 am

ItalianGreyhound

and the occasional pet ?

6:09 am

Scrabbler

I haven't heard of that. Coyotes and foxes though.

hokie carla

hey kiani

7:26 am

hokie carla

not a big fan of today's grid with all the duplicate letters. no HOET, GNOTBO, 43 left. 9-7-11-9-6-1. think I will go walk winston and do some weeding before it gets too hot. TTFN.

7:27 am

Kiani

enjoy!

7:43 am

hokie carla

ok, opted to do one more pass before I left and now 21 left. still no HOET but at least I found 2 8's and grayed a bunch of tiles. 4-3-4-5-4-1 left.

7:48 am

mael

upsetting that there's no superlative ending in this grid

7:48 am

mael

bye hokie!

7:53 am

mael

I finally found a bunch of 8s and the 9

7:55 am

MollyL

The 9 was a giveaway earlier this morning. Someone declared it not in the grid. 😊

7:55 am

mael

lol, I can see how that would happen with all repeat letters

7:56 am

mael

with these grids I just type before I even try to figure out how it would be possible in the grid, just in case

7:57 am

mael

then we enter into english spelling territory, like why is su7 spelled that way when ac6 is not? who knows!

8:58 am

BzznBea

hey peeps

8:58 am

welki

hi, bea :)

8:59 am

mael

9:13 am

saanichcat

9:13 am

saanichcat

I'm a bus driver?

9:13 am

MollyL

No Romper Room in Canada? How sad.

9:14 am

rururocks

ms Nancy was a kid show saan

9:14 am

rururocks

with her magic mirror

9:14 am

rururocks

she was a hot ticket when I was a kid

9:14 am

hokie carla

I remember Romper Room but don't remember it. one of my neighbors was on it one time.

9:15 am

saanichcat

Molly we are sadly deprived of the magic Mirror

9:16 am

MollyL

Way before your time Carla. Those were the days of Carnivals for Dystrophy. San, Google says Canada did have Romper Room.

9:17 am

saanichcat

No kids, and no TV. Never heard of it.

9:17 am

hokie carla

actually wiki is saying it was 1953-1994. franchised and syndicated, so some local markets made their own versions.

9:17 am

saanichcat

but I will keep the image of the Magic Mirror.

9:18 am

hokie carla

https://tinyurl.com/nuc8ppur

9:18 am

rururocks

well the Ms Nancy I grew up with was attractive

9:18 am

MollyL

At the end of the show, Miss Nancy would look through her Magic Mirror and say the names of all the kids she saw. She never saw Molly. I was traumatized for life.

9:19 am

rururocks

that explains it then :D

9:19 am

MollyL

That and 12 years of Catholic schooling

9:19 am

BzznBea

Miss Fran never saw Belinda either. But we were Good Do Bees

9:19 am

rururocks

oh shit.. that'd do it to anyone

9:20 am

hokie carla

hmm, the first youtube video of the magic mirror outro I picked has an apparently canadian miss nancy, because she said tomoorow and aboot

9:21 am

saanichcat

must have come from eastern Canada then

9:21 am

mael

I also had no idea what this magic mirror is :)

9:22 am

rururocks

previous generation kind of thing mael...

9:22 am

hokie carla

plus mael is italian

9:23 am

BzznBea

My favorite was Captain Kangaroo.

9:23 am

rururocks

i liked him too bea

9:23 am

hokie carla

I liked that one too, but don't remember a lot about it either. I also liked electric company.

9:24 am

rururocks

We also had Captain Satelite out here in California.. you probably didn't have that one

9:24 am

saanichcat

how about the Howdie Doodie Show? and the peanut gallery?

9:24 am

BzznBea

Did he show cartoons?

9:24 am

hokie carla

that was before my time, saan

9:25 am

rururocks

I didn't care for Howdy Doodie at all as a kid .. never watched it

9:25 am

saanichcat

when we only had two channels there wasn't much choice

9:26 am

rururocks

I don't really remember the show other than the set and his costume Bea

9:26 am

BzznBea

Major Astro was our after school cartoon host. As we got older her became Major Asshole.

9:26 am

saanichcat

actually ru, neither do I

9:26 am

MollyL

mail watched Capitan Canguro

9:26 am

MollyL

mael

9:26 am

saanichcat

hahah Bea!

9:27 am

mael

hah

9:27 am

hokie carla

I had older brothers so if they were home I didn't get to watch a lot of kid shows

9:28 am

rururocks

ah.. that explains it hokie

9:28 am

saanichcat

Robin Hood was a good one

9:29 am

rururocks

yeah.. only to discover years later that Robin Hood was a Gay hero...

9:29 am

MollyL

Try and explain to some young kid how TV used to end at midnight with the National Anthem and then the test pattern

9:30 am

rururocks

oh.. yeah I remember that Molly

9:30 am

hokie carla

okay, gotta get back out before I get glued to this chair

9:31 am

rururocks

It is 10:44 here. I am on a plane flying from Boston to Seattle so time here will be flexible all day.

wht

Right now I am over Ontario, soon to cross Lake Huron.

9:47 am

saanichcat

have you got a window seat?

9:48 am

wht

No, aisle. I prefer the 2 centimeters extra legroom.

9:49 am

dauber

I always preferred the aisle until I got a laptop with a battery that actually lasts long enough -- I like to write code in flight and the aisle gives me the elbow room!

9:50 am

saanichcat

2 centimeters! that's about it.

9:50 am

wht

You just have to be careful about the code introduced when someone bumps your elbow going by. :^)

9:53 am

MollyL

wht, that is quite a journey you are on. Best of luck.

9:54 am

dauber

Arrghhh....any clues for the ca8 or second de7/44?

9:56 am

BzznBea

9:57 am

BzznBea

rururocks

oh yeah Tennessee has just gone nutso

10:03 am

mael

morning dorens!

10:04 am

I am not sure that MA is sane but it is a different sort of crazy.

10:04 am

Dorens

Tennessee? why, Ru?

10:04 am

rururocks

did R and D have a great time?

10:04 am

Dorens

Silly Ru - they had a Great Time!

10:05 am

wht

Dorens, read my profile.

10:06 am

rururocks

TN has passed a number of anti LBGQT+ laws and it is getting worse daily

10:07 am

Dorens

wht I wish you the best of luck. Fortunately you live in a safer place. My sister lived in Arlington for years, moved to Winchester but still teaches yoga in Arlington.

10:07 am

rururocks

HI Wht.. i read it.. I support you, but why did you wait so long? 72 is kind of a late start isn't it?

10:08 am

wht

I was very slow on the uptake.

10:09 am

wht

I am generally very good at math but it took me a long time to put 2 and 2 together.

10:09 am

Dorens

well, this is just the right time for you then

10:10 am

rururocks

I agree.. good luck on your journey. You're one of the nicest People here in Babble and have always been so.

10:11 am

wht

Ruru, now you are making me blush.

clue for te6 please?

10:59 am

hurshy

gwen, i've been going through the classic Who, am nearly to the end of the Pertwee era

10:59 am

Book Doctor Gwen

sounds like fun, hurshy !!!

11:00 am

saanichcat

aslindy - a guy's name past tense te 6/27

11:00 am

nrkii

I only have one te6, and it's a past tense of a te4 plural

11:00 am

aslindy

thank you

11:00 am

hurshy

it is pretty hilarious how much 3 does reverse the polarity. i knew it was a sort of meme but now i see the reason

11:00 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ty saanichat

11:01 am

Book Doctor Gwen

they say that once he was given that line he loved it so much they kept giving itto him

11:01 am

saanichcat

yvw!

11:01 am

hurshy

it's quite the panacea

11:02 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yep, and scientifically hilarious

11:02 am

hurshy

i also really enjoyed seeing the sonic screwdriver used AS A SCREWDRIVER

11:02 am

hurshy

by troughton

11:03 am

hurshy

who knew??

11:03 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ahhhh great memories

11:03 am

hurshy

but then his regeneration into pertwee was pretty traumatic. more painful than any of the modern doctors regens.

11:03 am

hurshy

it's usually just "end of an era" painful but this was... harsh

11:04 am

Book Doctor Gwen

one thing i notice about Doctor Who is even when there's violence there's hardly any blood (with a few exceptions)

11:05 am

hurshy

but there was a lot more violence in pertwee than there usually is now, i feel. like more just... idk... action sequences of fighting, gun battles, what have you

11:05 am

Book Doctor Gwen

all regenerations are tragic, IMO, but hey, it's also one of the best gimmick sever invented, and saved the show

11:06 am

hurshy

when they first did it from hartnell to troughton they must have really been wondering "is this going to work? will fans go for it?"

11:06 am

Book Doctor Gwen

yeah, the Third Doctor loved flipping the stunt men over LOL

11:07 am

Book Doctor Gwen

and they keep saying the Doctor doesn't use guns -- oh yes he does -- not that often but -- yes he does

11:08 am

hurshy

well i'd say the show has continually moved away from that over time as much as possible

11:09 am

Book Doctor Gwen

of course the Doctor models good behavior for the kids -- most of the time LOL

I will take a clue for the last ac7.

11:15 am

bichon

clue for the second ac/40, pla

11:15 am

bichon

pls

11:15 am

Book Doctor Gwen

found ac8/55 -- a + double consonant + a really smart thought or invention (spelled wrong) + plural

11:15 am

Book Doctor Gwen

ac6/7 =to agree (rhymes with se4, you plant it and it grows)

11:16 am

hurshy

we could use that in yahtzee

11:16 am

hurshy

i should get to roll again, i didn't mean to roll then, it was an ac7!

11:16 am

Book Doctor Gwen

theac8 is not related to the ac6 or ac7s (AFAIK)

11:17 am

aslindy

thanks gwen

11:17 am

hurshy

well i mean it is related to its own non-plural 7

11:18 am

hurshy

but not the OTHER 7s

11:18 am

wht

ty gwen. I finally figured out which misspelling you meant,

11:18 am

bichon

ac 6/24, first one, pls

11:25 am

hurshy

agree to, perhaps reluctantly. often used when a superior grants a request

11:26 am

moolingwa

isn't that 6/27?

11:26 am

hurshy

doh, not paying attention

11:26 am

hurshy

sorries

11:26 am

hurshy

ok the only 6/24 i have is multiple angles of less than 90 degrees

11:26 am

bichon

no, but ty

11:27 am

moolingwa

that's the second one :)

11:27 am

moolingwa

I'm assuming

11:27 am

moolingwa

based on bich's request

11:27 am

hurshy

ok good to know!

11:27 am

hurshy

then that is my last missing A

11:28 am

moolingwa

though not sure how there could be one before your first clue :)

11:28 am

hurshy

sure, but there's room between them

11:29 am

moolingwa

another 6/24 :)

11:29 am

moolingwa

maybe that's it

11:29 am

hurshy

that's what i'm saying

11:29 am

hurshy

lol

11:29 am

moolingwa

yes, it's between

11:29 am

moolingwa

as you predicted

11:30 am

hurshy

ok so now you can clue it :D

11:38 am

moolingwa

11:38 am

wht

It is also a less than middling grade with a letter missing.

11:39 am

moolingwa

ooh, I like that

11:39 am

mool, I specialize in clues that are only obvious if you have already found the word.

11:54 am

Hi and bye pen. Now I really am going.

I was working in the shade and it's only 75 but had sweat dripping off

1:01 pm

bichon

dc, need the first one, pls

1:03 pm

nrkii

eh, I'm missing 2 A words, dc, so I may be sending you down the wrong rabbit hole. the ac 6/24 I mean comes after the non alkalines

1:04 pm

dcseain

yes, I was clear about that, thank you :)

1:05 pm

dcseain

ah, found it. Looks like a male first declension to me, thank you.

1:05 pm

nrkii

yes, you're right... Only one year of Latin and it was almost 40 years ago :)

1:06 pm

nrkii

my monkeys encouraged me to give that word a shot... good little monkeys

1:06 pm

dcseain

:)

1:08 pm

hokie carla

I only have 5 ac words, feels like I'm missing some that you all are talking about

1:09 pm

nrkii

there are 8

1:09 pm

nrkii

or more

1:09 pm

nrkii

somewhere between 8 and 10 :)

1:09 pm

nrkii

Do you have the 3 that are about King Charles' recent coronation?

1:10 pm

hokie carla

yes

1:11 pm

nrkii

then non alkaline and plural

1:11 pm

hokie carla

yes

1:12 pm

nrkii

skipping the one dc and I were discussing (Latin thing)... there is an ac5 that is about a type of angle in geometry

1:12 pm

nrkii

and it's plural

1:12 pm

nrkii

its

1:12 pm

hokie carla

btw, pulled out our wii over easter weekend and one of the wiimotes had ac4 leaked and dried all in it. tried the other day to clean it out, alas, it didn't work.

1:12 pm

hokie carla

oh duh, thank

1:13 pm

nrkii

so the one we were talking about comes between plural non-alkaline and singular angle

1:13 pm

nrkii

and it's a different latin form of an ac5 we see here quite a bit

1:13 pm

nrkii

but it's an ac6

1:13 pm

hokie carla

will look, thx

1:14 pm

nrkii

and I'm not sure if there are other ac words, because I'm still stuck with 2 A words to go

1:14 pm

nrkii

I have 3 AG words, and 1 Ai word

1:15 pm

hokie carla

I think I know the ac5 you are referring to but can't think of it right now. I'm assuming the 6 ends in not them. it's really on the tip of my brain.

1:16 pm

nrkii

yes

1:16 pm

nrkii

use the other i

1:17 pm

hokie carla

mmm, eating a very delicious pear right now

1:38 pm

nrkii

1:38 pm

periwinkle

1:39 pm

nrkii

you failed to su7/44?

1:39 pm

nrkii

:)

1:39 pm

The past tense of death by your own hand sounds weird

Okay, dictionary.com says that the second ac7/40 is "High School Level" (which seemed odd), but redirects for the definition to a different spelling of the word which it says is "Post-College Level".
