I saw that yesterday. he was almost 90 it looks like. and I didn't remember him being canadian.

another first tile struggle
7:13 am
hokie carla
now I see some there. twisty.
7:23 am
MollyL
I knew he was Canadian. But that is because I was married to a Canadian and they like to announce "He's Canadian" whenever you mention a celebrity from there.
7:25 am
hokie carla
LOL, I saw Robin Thicke once say that his dad Alan did that all the time.
7:26 am
MollyL
They aren't so happy to do that when you mention Bieber or Celine Dion.
7:27 am

canadian? nah, I don't think so. 🤣

yes Sutherland was Canadian.

true story, at my first job out of college, one of my work friends was a bridesmaids in Alan Thicke's wedding to her best friend, who was a Miss South Carolina or some pageant (they met when he was a pageant judge!) Anyhoo, my friend walked down the aisle at the end of the wedding with groomsman Wayne Gretzky.
7:38 am
hokie carla
and IIRC she didn't really know who he was
7:39 am
saanichcat
did she ever find out?
7:40 am

yes, she knew when she was telling me the story

I spelled it wrong at first too
9:28 am
rbud
that always makes me think of naps after Thanksgiving dinner, even though I think I read that it was eventually debunked.
9:29 am
MollyL
It was. The turkey is not what makes people sleepy after Thanksgiving dinner. Now all those carbs, that is another story.
9:32 am
rbud
so true! And that would be just about everything besides the turkey, at least when I cook for that day.
9:49 am

i think it doesn't matter what the food is when it is a large quantity, it's the being stuffed that makes you sleepy

good clue, just took me a sec because i was expecting it to start "non-"
10:42 am

far as i could see, the last 8 hasn't been mentioned

The no8 is a weird New Zealand bird.

Sorry Hursh, I was trying to let you find the no8 on your own, but since it got clued, I chimed in.

I think it's similar to tennis and squash, but with paddles more like pickleball but a faster ball than the pickleball.

I have never played racquetball or squash, nor do I think I've ever seen squash. I have seen racquetball but don't really know the rules.
11:55 am

yes, but in the US it is most often called paddle tennis...i think i saw a championship match on tv a year or so ago...
11:55 am
penquis
i have played racketball....not much but a little years ago...the YMCA where I lived had a few courts...
11:55 am

looks like slightly smaller court than doubles tennis and same scoring as tennis
11:56 am
hokie carla
I'm curious to try it
11:56 am

yeah, we had racquetball courts at our YMCA and mr. homie played some but I never did. and my freshman year roommate took it as a class.

12:00 pm

12:01 pm
hokie carla
everything was full. I tried to force-add bowling but no go. can't rem. if that was freshman or soph year and they pretty much only allowed force-adds for seniors.
12:02 pm

I graduated, moved to Charlotte, worked temp jobs for about 3 months and then finally found a job. True story, mr. homie had used Accountemps when he moved there and when I went in to see them they said, well we can get you jobs with our other temp company that is for secretaries. Um, so you could find jobs for my husband and his finance degree but not me and my accounting degree.

Accountemps gets terrible reviews on Glass Door
12:15 pm

not sure what that is but I'll buy that
12:17 pm

It is a job search site like Indeed. Accountemps is a Robert Half company and he's been involved in class action suits by dissatisfied customers.
12:18 pm

they should be called glass ceiling

It used to be a place that you could anonymously review a company. No more anonymous though and they took some shit for that.
12:21 pm

one of the placement places I worked with in NYC that first time tried to basically blackmail me, and I waited until after hours and left them a "go screw yourself" message
12:22 pm
hurshy
how did they try to blackmail you??
12:24 pm
moolingwa
So they had me interview for the back-office of one company and I ended up not wanting to take it...then another agency actually got me an interview with a different part of the org
12:25 pm
moolingwa
the first agency then claimed that they introduced me to that company, so that I had to go through them
12:25 pm
moolingwa
and threatened all sorts of nastiness
12:25 pm
hokie carla
I basically told the guy, look, I didn't go to school to be a secretary, so I will just wait until you can actually find something accounting related. I finally got a long-term temp job at a food company and then they were mad when I got a real job somewhere else. "We thought you were a long-term temp". Does that mean forever? I thought it was temporary. Like I'm a recent college grad not looking for a real job?
12:26 pm
moolingwa
As it was, I had already verbally accepted a different job with Goldman Sachs through them, but Goldman had like a 4 week background check process. I ended up doing another interview after that with this other company and they said "do you want to start tomorrow?" and so it appealed to me more...and I ended up taking it
12:26 pm
moolingwa
There ended up being a bit of a bidding war, which was crazy, but in the end it all worked out
12:27 pm

1:24 pm
hokie carla
it reminds me of a word that might describe a night-time bird or animal
1:24 pm
BzznBea
it isnt a non word
1:25 pm
hokie carla
or like the word that kinda means infamous. I believe duran duran sang a song about it.
1:26 pm
periwinkle
I looked up NZ birds but that did not help
1:27 pm
hokie carla
it's literally no + a letter + the or5, so only a few possibilities
1:27 pm
BzznBea
Peri, its from the n in fifth colomn
1:27 pm

got the no8 ty.

scrabble dictionary just says flightless bird
1:28 pm
hokie carla
the link here said that but added in NZ
1:28 pm

are these grids getting tougher or is it just me
1:29 pm
hokie carla
not just you. maybe just you and me though. everyone else is doing just fine.
1:29 pm

"hmph"
1:30 pm

I usually finish but sometimes it is tedious
1:30 pm
hokie carla
I commented earlier that I was getting worse
1:30 pm
hokie carla
I left 30 or so yesterday. still have 39 today.
1:31 pm
periwinkle
98 left here
1:31 pm
hokie carla
I tend to do worse in grids with a higher than normal % of 6's or longer
1:32 pm
cybernan
I think they are getting tougher -- so many unusual words and spellings accepted now that I can't be bothered to finish half the time. There are words accepted here that aren't in any of the other word games I play
1:32 pm
periwinkle
thanks nan, I feel better now
1:33 pm
cybernan
have no idea what the 9 or 10 could be in this one

1:34 pm
hokie carla
but "accepted now" is not really accurate. I know Dr. God started this game with a scrabble dictionary but switched it to enable within the first year. so this is the same word list (with the exception of added spam and I believe stent) as from almost the very beginning.
1:34 pm
hokie carla
I have typed gamet at least 4 times trying to get that to take, gwen.
1:35 pm
periwinkle
me too carla
1:35 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
nbt at last, 113 to go
1:36 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
i play three different "electronic" boggles and they all have different word lists inside them
1:36 pm
hokie carla
and nan, I have not seen the 9 or 10 stats mentioned but have seen a couple of people say they got them, so must be somewhat real, right?
1:37 pm
hokie carla
I think serpentine uses a newer version of enable because it's pretty similar to here, dictionary-wise

hokie carla
somehow I still need 4 S's there
1:41 pm
hokie carla
lol, just found a regular old s4 that I should have gotten
1:42 pm
hokie carla
bye peri
1:45 pm
hokie carla
well, think I will do something else. 33 left now.

bye carla -- will go through the list then call it quits
1:48 pm
hokie carla

1:49 pm
moolingwa
Still have 7 4s...probably could do the same
1:49 pm
moolingwa

1:50 pm
moolingwa
ah, a 6
1:50 pm
hokie carla
I will take notage
1:50 pm
moolingwa
and another 4
1:51 pm
hokie carla
there's one I definitely thought I typed already
1:51 pm
moolingwa
a 4/5 combo
1:53 pm
moolingwa
10 to go...

1:54 pm
moolingwa
oh of course, the takahe
1:54 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
nbt, woot, thanks for clue, someone
1:54 pm
hokie carla
what's that mean
1:54 pm
moolingwa
the 8 I was missing, is another name for a NZ bird called a takahe (TAH-ka-hay)
1:55 pm
hokie carla
ah, we talked about that just a bit ago. said I was surprised you missed that one
1:55 pm
hokie carla
I saw a tufted titmouse the other day on my porch
1:55 pm
moolingwa
yeah, well I did see the no8 question...I just had to deal with the painting guys
1:56 pm
moolingwa
I miss the tufted titmice...we don't get them here
1:56 pm
Book Doctor Gwen
nbs, i mean, woot
1:56 pm
moolingwa
we don't get cardinals either
1:57 pm
moolingwa
do get black capped chickadees and the occasional mountain chickadees tho
1:57 pm
hokie carla
wow, have never lived in a state without cardinals
1:57 pm
moolingwa
nice gwen
1:57 pm
moolingwa
I know, it's a bit odd
1:57 pm
hokie carla
not sure the state bird of SC, but it is the state bird of NC and VA.
1:57 pm
hokie carla
woot woot, gwen!
1:57 pm
moolingwa

1:58 pm
Book Doctor Gwen

1:58 pm
moolingwa
mockingbird is a popular state bird choice
1:58 pm
hokie carla
there was an interesting white and black large bird when we stayed in Fraser, CO. can't rem. now what it was.
1:59 pm
moolingwa
black-billed magpie to be precise
1:59 pm
hokie carla
yes, that's right
1:59 pm
moolingwa
there's also a much more localized yellow-billed magpie, but believe only parts of california for that (or I could be completely off)
2:00 pm
hokie carla
IIRC I read they have funerals
