11:51 am

hurshy

technically it's more canadian than US

11:51 am

moolingwa

even moreso then :)

11:52 am

hurshy

but fewer men know Anne than women

11:52 am

moolingwa

infinitely moreso then ;)

11:53 am

saanichcat

except in Japan maybe. She is a cult figure there

11:53 am

hurshy

11:54 am

hurshy

ok i have 53/59 R words.

11:54 am

moolingwa

11:55 am

moolingwa

it appears so :)

11:55 am

saanichcat

and I have almost ALL of them left tofind

11:56 am

12:09 pm

hurshy

12:10 pm

moolingwa

3 that mostly go together ;)

12:41 pm

MollyL

Can't say I have ever seen the 8 in use, but I don't frequent places that would use it 😊

12:42 pm

12:47 pm

ChampFit

Thx for the clue on the ea, mael!

2:00 pm

2:22 pm

hokie carla

2:22 pm

ChampFit

Ha! One less thing to fool with anyone.

2:23 pm

ChampFit

2:24 pm

hokie carla

2:24 pm

ChampFit

6:11 pm

jesdraggon

finally to half way, and immediately to list

6:15 pm

the pa8/50 sounds to me more like a religious figure - not a pastor but a pa5 + "one who does" ending
