The Enable word list makers are way too nerdy to be gearheads.
8:07 am
hokie carla
oh, for transmissions? I was thinking trannies for transvestites.
8:08 am
MollyL
I didn't know that term was used for them.
8:08 am
hokie carla
didn't they call them that back in the day?
8:08 am
hokie carla
m-w says "less common", so not sure where I got that
8:10 am
hokie carla
there is a wiki article on the word so I guess it was more in culture than m-w thinks.
8:10 am
rururocks
we used the name trannies as a kid when I grew up

so if you say the word "bunny" around winston he goes on high alert. my kids thought I was making it up, but it was very easy to show them. he & I are sitting on the porch now and I heard something in the yard. I said, oh it's a bunny, and he popped his head up and started searching. I am not sure how/when he learned that word and response.
8:46 am
hokie carla
but it cracks me up every time

rehi - I remember there was a movie with Charlize Theron?
10:34 am

10:36 am

10:36 am

10:40 am

the coffee just hit. 2h later.
10:42 am
hokie carla
I did V8 energy drink this morning instead of coffee
10:42 am
dcseain
I'm always entertained that saxa is a word in this game. I've only seen it in the phrase Hoya Saxa! at Georgetown University.
10:42 am
moolingwa
having difficulty staying in one spot on this one :)
10:42 am
dcseain
that sound delicious, carla
10:42 am

but I also got way better sleep last night and woke up more refreshed than usual
10:42 am

10:43 am
dcseain
me too, carla
10:43 am
moolingwa
I don't happen to drink coffee
10:43 am
hokie carla
I think I started drinking coffee in my early 40s
10:43 am
hokie carla
I think I will quit. have been doing brewed cacao but skipped that this morning too.
10:45 am
welki
whew. this grid, for me, is a grunt.
10:45 am
moolingwa
yeah, it's a bit chewy
10:47 am
moolingwa
well...HOET at last
10:47 am
welki
hokey, why v8 energy? it's probably got as much caffeine in it as coffee/tea
10:47 am
hokie carla
yeah, probably gonna leave a lot today.
10:49 am
hokie carla
according to the can it's 10 mg less than 8oz of coffee, and I'm thinking a coffee mug holds more than that. might be slightly more calories depending on how much creamer I put in coffee. but I do think it tastes better. I like the hotness of coffee in the winter but it's already summer here.
10:50 am
welki
<-- would drink the coffee and save the v8 for a caesar/bloody mary
10:50 am
hokie carla
and it's supposedly steady energy from black and green tea. I do not like tea.
10:51 am
hokie carla
it's not like a V8 for a bloody mary, it's orange pineapple flavored.
10:51 am
welki
(i do like a virgin mary/caesar in the morning)
10:52 am
welki
ohhh, sounds yummy. i mix coconut water with a little pineapple/orange juice
10:54 am

off to pretend to be productive until golf later - that high handicap group is working out well, a nice mixed group of folks, all with pretty good senses of humor

5:32 pm
moolingwa
I did not have the 8 though...tx
5:32 pm
moolingwa
thought I had typed it, but must have typoed it
5:33 pm
ChampFit
Don't get me started on the "thought I typed that" stuff. Happens to me constantly!
5:33 pm
hokie carla
it's not organise no matter how many times I type it
5:33 pm
Gillie
Well, the or8 is from French, so that explains the spelling, I guess
5:33 pm
ChampFit
Allrighty then!
5:33 pm
dcseain
indeed so, Gillie
5:33 pm
moolingwa
or in other words, the French can't spell....in English
5:34 pm
hokie carla
feels like I'm going to need a clue
5:34 pm
Gillie
It goes with the or9
5:34 pm
moolingwa
musical instrument must end it's life!
5:34 pm
hokie carla
yeah, but I don't have the or9

5:34 pm
hokie carla
ok, thanks moo
5:35 pm
hokie carla

5:35 pm
moolingwa
hopefully it's not a spleen
5:36 pm
hokie carla

5:36 pm
moolingwa

5:42 pm
moolingwa
but could be one that you just chose to pass over
5:42 pm
hokie carla
yes, the 5. had the 7.
