8:04 am

8:05 am

hokie carla

8:05 am

MollyL

hokie carla

working on the C now, yuck as always

8:06 am

mael

mael

8:08 am

mael

ohh that got me two more, thanks hokie

8:09 am

mael

sad we can't use the biblical ending hah

8:09 am

hokie carla

np, those were the last 2 I found so thought they might be hiding from you

8:09 am

MollyL

There is a great scene in "The Curse of Bridge Hollow" (really good Halloween movie by the way) where the Dad guesses all the Halloween costumes wrong and one of the kids says "You are so old".

8:10 am

hokie carla

haha, don't think I've ever heard of that

8:10 am

MollyL

It's new on Netflix. I loved it.

8:10 am

hokie carla

8:10 am

hurshy

phantom: peace

8:10 am

mael

I'll have the kids watch it, is it scary or just spooky?

8:11 am

hokie carla

I watched Corpse Bride last night, which I have never seen

8:11 am

MollyL

8:22 am

hokie carla

8:22 am

hurshy

8:22 am

MollyL

Royale With Cheese is not in the grid

8:22 am

hurshy

knowing it's a 4 always helps

8:23 am

I guess they didn't use it in the 19th century

8:25 am

hokie carla

oh, I thought we were talking about the gi4 too

8:25 am

hokie carla

and now I see the other does have more points

8:25 am

hokie carla

well of course the go4 is scottish

8:27 am

hurshy

8:29 am

hurshy

The co7.44 is the plural

co6.30 is the singular.
