12:40 pm

cybernan

have the 7-8

12:41 pm

hokie carla

the 5 babblet and its past tense 7?

12:41 pm

cybernan

oh for pete's sake -- since when is a radio a noun?

12:41 pm

cybernan

I mean wince when is it a verb

12:41 pm

hokie carla

not sure what you are talking about

12:42 pm

cybernan

wi 8 - a noun not a verb

12:43 pm

cybernan

missing the re babblet - trying to think

12:43 pm

hokie carla

oh. I don't think of that as a radio even though I've heard it called that.

12:43 pm

cybernan

showing your youth carla -- that's the only def. I can think of

12:44 pm

cybernan

un less you are referring to computers in which case it is an adjective

12:45 pm

hokie carla

I think of it related to computer and other more modern technology, and more of an adj than a noun

12:45 pm

hokie carla

oh, found my single E. not sure why that was so hard.

12:46 pm

hokie carla

still don't have that top i

12:46 pm

cybernan

still trying to come up with an re babblet - not seeing anythin familiar

12:47 pm

cybernan

top i is an il 4/4 babblet

12:47 pm

hokie carla

re5/10. it's scottish (of course) for curing or smoking meat

12:47 pm

Biltong

il4/4, hokie

12:48 pm

cybernan

have a look at my profile - some scottish words are trump - pun intended

12:48 pm

hokie carla

oh geez, still took me forever to see that, thanks, biltong.

12:48 pm

Biltong

:-)

12:48 pm

hokie carla

finally got HOET. 37 left. gotta go hit the shower.

12:48 pm

MollyL

We have that re5/10 a lot

12:49 pm

hokie carla

yes, one of the first babblets I learned

12:49 pm

cybernan

got it - ty carla

12:50 pm

MollyL

The past tense of wi8 makes no sense to me no matter what you're talking about.

12:56 pm

cybernan

the pt li li 6 doesn't make any sense either

12:58 pm

cybernan

need one more r from the top

1:00 pm

cybernan

need one more l from top

1:02 pm

cybernan

got it - goal met and I'm off for now. bbl

1:19 pm

hokie carla

well, if you can say "I radioed" then I guess you can use wi10 if you use that to mean radio. but definitely not on my radar.

1:20 pm

hokie carla

and thanks, that was my last L on the top

1:24 pm

dcseain

oh, that past was unexpected. Thanks!

1:45 pm

MollyL

Can the past be unexpected? (Sounds like Philosophy class)

1:53 pm

2:01 pm

hokie carla

2:02 pm

hokie carla

haha. talking on the phone and was going to tell you I needed that one, but instead typed it in.

2:03 pm

mael

haha what a pair

2:34 pm

MollyL

eses might be a word

3:04 pm

hokie carla

what's crazy is I had already typed it into my add word box, so why did I even type it here?

3:33 pm

BzznBea

namaste

3:38 pm

hurshy

people used to call telegrams wireless messages sometimes too, i think? but i am having trouble thinking they would say "i wi10" rather than "i telegraphed" or "i sent a telegram" or "i sent a wi8"

3:38 pm

hurshy

oh dang i forgot to abbreviate the first time

3:39 pm

hurshy

sigh

3:39 pm

hurshy

is anyone here? i need a G. i have all 4s except for one 5.

3:40 pm

hurshy

OHO pt for that too

3:40 pm

hurshy

we all owe peri a huge debt for creating her principle

3:41 pm

hurshy

ok but i also need an i word, from the tile with 5, and i DO have the pt of the flower as well as the plural so i am really stumped

3:41 pm

periwinkle

and here I am

3:41 pm

periwinkle

hello all

3:41 pm

hurshy

hiya peri :)

3:43 pm

hurshy

As Axed!

3:44 pm

hurshy

is there a DW word today?

3:45 pm

periwinkle

no

3:45 pm

hurshy

cool

3:46 pm

hurshy

of course that means i have no idea what i DO need for the D but

3:46 pm

hurshy

oh well

3:48 pm

NANCY

I am stuck on the re 618 that comes from the second column. It is after the re 7 that means to elevate. any help

3:49 pm

hurshy

that was what i needed for R!!!!

3:49 pm

hurshy

maybe you pawn something

3:49 pm

hurshy

or someone returns it so the store re6s it

3:51 pm

NANCY

oh for heavens sake how could a simple word be so hard to find....ty hurshy

3:51 pm

hurshy

aHA found my i word!!

3:51 pm

hurshy

3 left now!!!! 2 S and a D

3:54 pm

hurshy

got an S5!

3:54 pm

hurshy

ok here is the question: is there ONE de7 or are there TWO?

3:55 pm

hokie carla

rehi. I have 1. but need 1 D.

3:57 pm

hurshy

i feel like it kinda has to be another D7 because my other missing word is a 4, and i can't seem to make another 4 from that top D

3:59 pm

hokie carla

I think I have all possible 4s from that D but you never know.

3:59 pm

hurshy

i mean i think i have literally tried every combo of de--

3:59 pm

hurshy

and peri said not dw

4:01 pm

hokie carla

not desist

4:01 pm

hokie carla

which is also a 6

4:01 pm

hurshy

but i'm equally stuck trying to find an S4, if i am correct that it is that way

4:06 pm

hokie carla

which S?

4:09 pm

hurshy

lower

4:09 pm

hokie carla

I still needed 7 there but down to 3 now

4:10 pm

hurshy

phantom: dessert

4:18 pm

hokie carla

4:46 pm

4:46 pm

hokie carla

hey ch

4:49 pm

ch1212

Now of course, I'm hungry for deli. Which we might get tonight, because our fridgerator stopped working, and I had to toss all the deli stuff, produce, cheese, etc. New fridge arriving in a couple days.

4:49 pm

hokie carla

that stinks, but new fridge!

4:50 pm

ch1212

LOL! Actually, yes, it DID stink until I removed the food - lol. And yes, looking forward to a new fridge.

4:51 pm

hurshy

ok give up, looked at list, i am right, there is a 2nd de7

4:51 pm

hokie carla

can you spare a clue?

4:51 pm

hurshy

i haven't FOUND it yet, just looked at the list

4:52 pm

hokie carla

I see. how many points?

4:52 pm

hurshy

but it comes right after the sandwich shop

4:52 pm

hurshy

which means it has to start with that

4:52 pm

hurshy

32

4:52 pm

hurshy

aHA

4:52 pm

like feverish states where you're not thinking straight

4:53 pm
