Double Clues today
12:23 am
justafreep

ha
12:23 am
justafreep

I expect to finish faster than ever thanks to the double clues, so it's appreciated. And appreciated.
12:29 am
cybernan

half way - thanks for all the clues. Good night :)
12:29 am
jeanne314

what are double clues???
12:36 am
justafreep

Night nan
12:37 am
justafreep

And Jeanne - I think Lickety just posted that the clues were up twice is all. Nothing actually special. Just silliness with a silly double post
12:38 am
jeanne314

Thank you, justafreep! I've been on this game since '07, but who knows what might have gone past me! I should have guessed the humor with the wits who abound here!
12:39 am
justafreep

I would go with 'goofiness' even more than humor this time. But also... yeah, I also figure one day I'll learn something new that everyone else has known for years
12:41 am
jeanne314

All the fun stuff counts as good humor in my book. I like your humility...it always pays to keep an open mind! I thought that "double clue" was something new that everyone else has known for years, lol!
12:43 am
justafreep

Let's make it up right now and see if we can convince people of it another night. Then you and I can just start calling it a "DC" like we are that familiar with it...
12:43 am
jeanne314

Oho! I like that idea! Hmmmm. At least I can keep a poker face behind the screen!
12:44 am
jeanne314

Oh, yes...I saw the hidden clue about the DC, Freep! Let's race to the finish!
12:44 am
justafreep

You're on!
12:45 am
jeanne314

There ought to be a prize involved...if it gets to that point. Winner gets to interview Lickety!
12:46 am
justafreep

Fair
12:47 am
jeanne314

Deal. Good luck with the rest of tonight's double clues, ROFLMAO! (I think this is pretty outdated by this point, but I still like it.)
12:47 am
justafreep

I am actually trying to imagine what a double clue would be now. Like... it's just two clues? Seems too easy. Maybe it's that there's extra information if you know how to read it right.
12:48 am
justafreep

And good luck to you, too. Maybe we won't even need any clues! (A guy can dream....)
12:49 am
jeanne314

Much to know. You go to the top of the leader board if you finish the game. But you have to do something (what???) to invoke the DC for the win. ... hmmm. getting complicated.
12:49 am
jeanne314

A gal can dream too!
12:50 am
justafreep

I think we've done enough. We'll leave it to the next crew that comes in to read our thoughts and finish this off
12:50 am
jeanne314

I'm just happy for every regular clue folks post here. I no longer have the ability to print out the clue sheet, and I can't operate two screens well enough. So those call-outs are soooo welcome! Yes, let others puzzle it out!

12:58 am

looks pretty good so far, no rain and good coffee
1:02 am
justafreep

Oooh. That is great. Thanks.
1:14 am
grannyrose

cooee and g'day from still positive me. contactless * hugs * sprite
1:14 am
sprite

*hugs rose* You are always positive, lol
1:15 am
grannyrose

giggling. thanks my darling. still no sense of smell so everything tastes the same. ugh!
1:15 am
sprite

I know! Very boring. Glad to read that Don is doing a little bit more
1:16 am
sprite

you know you are a nerd when teraohm is a phantom
1:17 am
grannyrose

i think he worked it out for himself sprite. he took notice of how hard it was for me to breath even af5 doing the smallest of things..
1:17 am
sprite

till the next time...
1:17 am
grannyrose

shhhhhhhh.....there will be no next time
1:18 am
sprite

owwwwwkay! :D
1:18 am
grannyrose

did you have another good night, honey?
1:19 am
sprite

yeah I did. Bit under the weather though this morning, so going slow
1:21 am
grannyrose

good for you having another good night. baaaad you are under the weather. usual stuff? or is the weather about to change?
1:21 am
sprite

belly aches. Not sure.
1:22 am
grannyrose

oh dear. * gently rubs sprite's belly * heat pack do you think?
1:23 am
grannyrose

brb. looking for food i can taste.
1:23 am
sprite

might come to that. A makeshift one, lol, no idea where ours is. Probably still in a box. But a bottle with hot water works too.
1:24 am
sprite

*hands rose a hand of chilis*
1:31 am
grannyrose

pffffttttt. ewwww
1:31 am
sprite

*grins* Okay, no chilis. What did you get?
1:31 am
grannyrose

back with hard boiled egg, salt, liverwurst, and crackers.
1:32 am
sprite

you go, girl.
1:32 am
grannyrose

now putting liverwurst on the egg, and salt on the crackers....
1:32 am
grannyrose

nope, doesn't taste quite right
1:33 am
sprite

almost, sweetie, almost. You can do it.
1:34 am
grannyrose

gp suggested the hard boiled eggs as a snack to help with my iron levels.
1:34 am
sprite

not too much salt though!
1:35 am
grannyrose

btw ? you know how iron tablets are supposed to cause constipation?
1:35 am
sprite

yep
1:35 am
grannyrose

apparently when you have FM they don't.
1:37 am
sprite

nope. Same here.
1:37 am
grannyrose

our crazy bodies huh?
1:38 am
sprite

ikr? I used to be on pretty high doses of oxycontin. Same story. My gp wanted to prescribe me some pretty nasty fiber solution sachets. Told her I was sitting on the loo too long and often as it was, grin.
1:39 am
grannyrose

* laughing *
1:43 am
sprite

I try and do my very best to keep my iron up though. I have been on iron tablets a few times and it drives me bananas. Cannot figure out a schedule for all the meals and meds then. Not to take within half an hour before and an hour after meals. Not to combine with other meds. Craziness.
1:43 am
grannyrose

right. just put the liverwurst back in the fridge. can't taste it, and i'm not wasting it when i can't enjoy it.
1:45 am
grannyrose

i hear you sprite. i mean, balancing our meds, meals, etc is hard enough already.
1:46 am
sprite

sure is. If you have trouble eating enough with the lack of taste, you might wanna try liquid meals (not sure of the word in english, you know, the protein shake kind of things)
1:47 am
sprite

oh darn, I have to get ready for work. Doing a shift on the sos help line. *hugs* my darling, take good care of yourself.
Bye, jeanne and freep!
1:47 am
grannyrose

well i won't be able to taste their yucky flavour at least... lol
1:49 am
sprite

back later! *poof for now*
1:50 am
grannyrose

okay
4:36 am
sprite

back. Very interesting shift.

7:04 am
ChampFit

I'm just gonna let that one go...... ;)
7:06 am
ChampFit

Wow...I've just been plugging away and didn't even look at the stats. Probably passed up the 9/10 somewhere earlier.
7:10 am
MollyL

They were calling them at the flip like the blurt starved
7:11 am
ChampFit

I don't usually check the flip till after I've done my first pass. Almost there tho
7:13 am
MollyL

I don't either. I like to find words on my own.
7:20 am
ChampFit

Really want refart to be a word...
7:21 am
periwinkle

me too :)
7:21 am
ChampFit

Well I was wrong! The 10 came towards the end of my first pass.
7:22 am
periwinkle

found 2 8s on my own so far
7:22 am
ChampFit

Me too. I don't want to be too optimistic, but so far this isn't so bad. Sprite finishing so late worried me.
7:26 am
hurshy

gmorning
7:26 am
ChampFit

morning!
7:28 am
hurshy

do we know if there are any SW? it seems unlikely but...
7:29 am
aslindy

hello all
7:29 am
hurshy

hi lindy
7:32 am
ChampFit

I still have 4 s's left but no sw
7:32 am
hurshy

oh i just need 2
7:32 am
hurshy

so far i have sc x 2, se x 6, su x 8
7:33 am
ChampFit

Thx.
7:34 am
ChampFit

Got another 8 from there...
7:34 am
hurshy

another??
7:34 am
ChampFit

I have 3 total. Also, su x 9
7:35 am
ChampFit

Down to 2 left on the s
7:35 am
hurshy

that's impossible, i have only 1 8 and need 2 words, can only be 2 8s and a 9
7:35 am
hurshy

so is one of the 8s su, going with the 9?
7:36 am
ChampFit

I'm sorry...I have 3 - 8's. One of them is an 8.
7:36 am
ChampFit

One of the S's is an 8. Sorry to be unclear
7:36 am
hurshy

no i see you meant there are 9 su words
7:36 am
hurshy

it's ok these things happen and part of it was me being thick
7:37 am
hurshy

but i did get another su so thanks :D
7:37 am
ChampFit

Cross eyed from the grid. Down to 34.
7:39 am
MollyL

The 9 is not su
7:39 am
ChampFit

Stats please!

7:48 am
periwinkle

found the re10 but not the re9
7:49 am
MollyL

I thought the 9 was easier to see than the 10
7:50 am
rururocks

oh.. i got the 8 and the 10.. thanks peri
7:50 am
MollyL

I heard from my sister in northern North Carolina briefly. She said it's pretty bad there.
7:51 am
MollyL

Looks like a lot of flooding and closed roads from what news I can find.
7:51 am
periwinkle

are they all connected ru?
7:51 am
MollyL

Sorry, she is in western North Carolina.
7:51 am
ChampFit

Yes, a friend of mine has a daughter there too. She said the same. No water, electricity, etc.
7:52 am
ChampFit

Thank goodness it's not the heat of the summer. That's a small blessing.
7:52 am
MollyL

No Peri they are not connected
7:52 am
aslindy

my mother in law is in NC. we haven't heard from her yet, unless she contacted my husband after I was asleep last night
7:52 am
periwinkle

ok molly
7:52 am
MollyL

I agree Champ. No AC in the heat of the summer sucks
7:53 am
ChampFit

it just magnifies the misery.
7:53 am
aslindy

we have friends on a small island west of Florida, they lost everything in their house, and their 2 vehicles. but they and the dogs are safe.
7:53 am
maccafixx

tu 4/6?
7:54 am
MollyL

I can get under blankets and deal with no heat, but no AC when it's hot is miserable
7:54 am
ChampFit

That's awful! I'm so sorry to hear it.
7:54 am
ChampFit

Poop maccafixx
7:55 am
maccafixx

Thanks. errr
7:56 am
rururocks

that's a crappy clue
7:56 am
ChampFit

The gassy one is right there too.
7:59 am
MollyL

I would be terrified to live on a small island west of Florida given that we deal with hurricane season every year.
7:59 am
MollyL

I just talked to my niece. She said it's really bad where my nephew and my sister are and they aren't supposed to get power or water back for weeks.
8:00 am
aslindy

they are at least close enough there is a bridge to the mainland.
8:08 am
rururocks

I'd be terrified to live in Florida as a young woman that's for sure

8:21 am
ChampFit

ru, I'm staring at it now looking for the 8
8:22 am
ChampFit

Molly, tell your nephew you're disappointed that he didn't have proper hurricane back up booze!
8:22 am
MollyL

If I know him, he did. He's just worried about running out.
8:23 am
ChampFit

:)
8:23 am
MollyL

Apparently, The National Guard is having trouble getting into that area
8:23 am
rururocks

wow
8:25 am
MollyL

The whole historic section of Asheville where The Biltmore is is under water. A dam burst and wiped out a nearby town. It's bad.
8:25 am
hurshy

is that florida still? do they have an Asheville?
8:26 am
ChampFit

No, NC.
8:26 am
hurshy

ok, that Asheville
8:31 am
hurshy

hmm, i don't know about this Hs being easy thing. i mean they did flow along nicely but now i'm stuck with 3 to go

Me too. One's an 8
8:32 am
hurshy

hmmmm
8:33 am
aslindy

8:35 am
hurshy

Ts Toppled!
8:35 am
MollyL

Lake Lure Dam
8:37 am
aslindy

I don't see that it burst, but only that water was overtopping it. still searching
8:38 am
hurshy

8 left! one of them being that H8
8:38 am
ChampFit

so annoying
8:38 am
Norma

te
8:39 am
MollyL

Sorry bad information. The Broad River overflowed and wiped out the town of Chimney Rock. Lake Lure dam is still iffy and surrounding areas are being evacuated.
8:40 am
aslindy

ok thanks for clarifying
8:41 am
MollyL

Part of interstate 40 collapsed.
8:47 am

ChampFit

8:49 am
MollyL

Someone had a fun Saturday night
8:49 am
ChampFit

It's funky. I used morewords. Wouldn't have gotten it otherwise.
8:49 am
MollyL

ha8 it is a hideous word
8:49 am

8:51 am
aslindy

no, have that one
8:52 am
rururocks

well it must have been a lot Molly, this guy can drink anyone under the table.. he's unbelievable.
8:53 am
MollyL

Oh, is that the one you said could drink Marian Ravenwood under the table?
8:53 am
rururocks

(not to upset soodle but he's irish) he can just handle unreal amounts of alcohol without being slightly tipsy
8:53 am
MollyL

My kind of guy
8:53 am
rururocks

he must process it differently than most people
8:54 am
hurshy

yeah maybe some genetic quirk
8:54 am
rururocks

I think so hursh
8:54 am
hurshy

like the people who aren't allergic to mosquito bites, they don't itch at all *so jealous*
8:54 am
rururocks

he's really professional and polite and never gets out of hand
8:55 am
MollyL

He should mention that if he ever needs to have surgery. Those people usually need more anesthesia than usual.
8:55 am
rururocks

I don't get bitten by mosquitoes ... they don't like my blood I guess
8:55 am
MollyL

It's not your blood, it's your skin
8:55 am
hurshy

well then i'm jealous of you too
8:55 am
rururocks

oh
8:55 am
rururocks

really?
8:55 am
hurshy

bug bites are the main reason i don't spend much time outside
8:56 am
rururocks

what is it about the skin molly?
8:56 am
bichon

put witch hazel on bug bites
8:57 am
MollyL

People with less bacteria on their skin get fewer to no mosquito bites
8:57 am
hurshy

is there a way to reduce how much bacteria you have on your skin?
8:58 am
MollyL

Shower constantly.
8:58 am
hurshy

oh so that's NOT genetic
9:01 am
rururocks

oh.. that's interesting
9:02 am
rururocks

How does one collect bacteria on their skin
9:05 am
MollyL

All kinds of things affect skin bacteria. How much water you drink, your diet, the fabrics you wear, how often you rotate your linens and towels, etc.
9:06 am
MollyL

Also, fair skinned people tend to get more mosquito bites than darker skinned people.
9:06 am
NonoNanette

aslindy, is you te6 the one that sounds like the syndrome
9:07 am
rururocks

well I must be doing something right then :D
9:07 am
rururocks

<--uses towels only once before washing
9:09 am
MollyL

As a public service announcement kind of thing, you can help people affected by Hurricane Helene by donating to The Red Cross
9:10 am
BzznBea

It is horrible in NC.
9:13 am
rururocks

how about in your area bea
9:15 am
BzznBea

We just had some rain and winds as we were on the outer band.
9:16 am
BzznBea

The people in the mountains...entire towns are underwater.
9:19 am
rururocks

in the mountains isn't that unusual for it to flood there?
9:19 am
MollyL

Nope. Lots of lakes and rivers.
9:20 am
rururocks

oh.. ok.. that makes sense
9:20 am
rururocks

I'd worry about mold after flooding
9:21 am
MollyL

It is a big problem
9:21 am
MollyL

Especially in older houses
9:22 am
BzznBea

And a lot of people live in the valleys of the mountains which is why they are underwater.
9:23 am
BzznBea

It is a rural area with a lot of poor people.
9:23 am
MollyL

One thing to remember if you ever have to stock up for a storm is to have cash. So many people don't carry cash anymore and stores can't take credit when the power is out
9:23 am
MollyL

One thing to remember if you ever have to stock up for a storm is to have cash. So many people don't carry cash anymore and stores can't take credit when the power is out
9:26 am
rururocks

good advice.. that bears repeating
9:27 am
rururocks

I'm about the last person in California to use cash all the time.. I get the funniest looks
9:30 am
hokie carla

Molly, have you heard from your sister?
9:31 am
MollyL

The only thing I ever get cash for is lottery tickets. And you can even use plastic in those machines now.
9:32 am
hokie carla

I do keep an emergency cash fund but it’s mostly 100s and 50s now so may be hard to spend
9:32 am
MollyL

Carla, it's bad where she is. No power or water and the power could be out for weeks. She is going to my niece's in Atlanta as soon as my niece and her husband can get into North Carolina to fetch her.
9:32 am
MollyL

My nephew is stuck because he lives on 8 acres and has animals to be concerned with.
9:35 am
hokie carla

Rode our bikes around yesterday. So many downed power lines and trees fallen on lines. We have a small power company so I think it’s going to take a long time. I am very thankful we still have water.
9:35 am
hokie carla

Hope she gets out soon
9:37 am
hokie carla

Our power co is just saying multiple days
9:37 am
MollyL

I can't imagine days without water. I can deal with sponge bathing but not being able to flush the toilet? No thanks.
9:38 am
hokie carla

Yeah, I filled the tub up the other day in case of emergency flushing
9:39 am
hokie carla

Have lived through a long power and water outage before at VT
9:39 am
BzznBea

Are there place you can go to charge things, Carla?
9:41 am
hokie carla

Yeah, have been going to a neighbor’s who has a generator. Our friend that lives in town has Duke and it is back on so we’re going to charge things there later today
9:42 am
hokie carla

Maybe he has internet and I can download some movies onto my laptop
9:43 am
BzznBea

Makes you want to get a generator.
9:43 am
hokie carla

We have a camping trip planned for later this week at Jordan Lake to have a weekend with the youngest. I assume everything is okay out there, bea? Hope we can get gas on the way.
9:44 am
BzznBea

Yes. Things are fine in the Triangle.
9:44 am
hokie carla

Can still hear our out of town neighbor’s running
9:45 am
hokie carla

Good, thanks
9:45 am
hokie carla

I guess it’s hooked to their propane and will quit eventually
9:46 am
BzznBea

Have you lost much food?
9:47 am
rururocks

I have a generator now that Iost everything in teh 2017 fires.. it's a godsend
9:48 am
rururocks

We have lots of power outages here in Napa... so it's nice to not bake when the power goes off
9:49 am
rururocks

sorry you're out of power hokie and water. what a drag
9:51 am
hokie carla

We cleaned out the fridge yesterday and moved stuff to coolers. Had to eat the ice cream last night.
9:52 am
hokie carla

Luckily it hasn’t gotten too hot yet. Only 68F out right now.
9:52 am
hokie carla

I still have water, but thanks!
9:53 am
origami

What a drag, hokie. I hope you get power and water back soon.
9:53 am
BzznBea

How much rain did you get?
9:53 am
hokie carla

We have a propane camping stove and griddle so have been cooking on that
9:53 am
origami

Oh, that
9:54 am
origami

Oh, that's good. Being without water is a real pain.
9:55 am
hokie carla

I’m not sure total as my gauge only goes to 5”. I emptied it on Tues (Wed?) night and know we got 8’ that day and then it filled up again before and then during the storm.
9:56 am
hokie carla

I still don’t know if we got hit by TS or hurricane? Anyone know?
9:57 am
BzznBea

It was a TS when it went into GA.
9:57 am
rururocks

what's a TS?
9:57 am
rururocks

tropical storm?
9:57 am
