MollyL

Fun fact of the day...Pennies cost about 3.69 cents to produce. Nickels cost about 13.78 cents to produce. The US Government has begun the process of phasing out penny production. Pinch them while you can.

2:25 pm

ch1212

So savings of 3.69 x 3.2 billion (minted in 2024). Not bad. If my math is correct, that's around $100 million.

2:26 pm

BzznBea

Guess whose pockets will get that.

2:27 pm

ch1212

Not Medicaid, I'm willing to bet.

2:41 pm

ch1212

clue for the gu6/27 please? I can't even find it using Knight's list.

2:43 pm

BzznBea

ends with alt spelling of not day

2:44 pm

ch1212

Thanks Bea! I'm adding that to the list. :)

2:45 pm

MollyL

Knight's list?

2:46 pm

ch1212

Years back, Knight created a comprehensive babble dictionary in a excel spreadsheet. You can em me if you want a copy. My em is in my profile :)

2:49 pm

MollyL

No idea who Knight is, don't need the list

hokie carla

y'all, I'm so old I pulled a muscle coughing the other day.

4:37 pm

MollyL

Pish, I've been that old for years.

4:41 pm

hokie carla

can't wait to see what else goes soon

4:41 pm

MollyL

It's like driving a used car, except you can't trade it in for a new one

5:11 pm

mkg

hi all. Need help. I have no 7s or 8s. I welcome help of any kind. Ty.

5:12 pm

rururocks

pulled a muscle coughing?

5:12 pm

rururocks

really?

5:13 pm

mkg

Is that a clue ruru?

5:14 pm

MollyL

Oh get serious. I know people who have thrown their backs out coughing. Read the chat mkg

5:15 pm

rururocks

that's some serious coughing

5:15 pm

MollyL

When your muscles get old, it doesn't take much to throw them out of whack

5:16 pm

rururocks

i could make a joke but I'd get in trouble.

5:18 pm

MollyL

Always so worried about the pearl clutchers

5:20 pm

rururocks

I know .. I just try to avoid hassles these days

5:21 pm

MollyL

It's better that way. I try to avoid the drama induced as well.

5:29 pm

rururocks

people used to worried about kids playing here.. but the ones that did were fake players

5:35 pm

MollyL

I always laughed when people got concerned about kids playing here. More drama.

5:35 pm

rururocks

meh name is hannah

5:35 pm

rururocks

probably those asshole Nancy boy guys

5:40 pm

MollyL

Oh I think we have had a fake poster or two who wasn't them. And meh name is hannah was one of them.

5:44 pm

mkg

ty Dan! just saw clue and got the word. ty tyty

5:44 pm

rururocks

you think?

5:44 pm

rururocks

hmm... she was a fake for sure either way

5:44 pm

rururocks

and trying to get emails and such from other players.. similar pattern

5:45 pm

MollyL

People assume new identities here when their original identity becomes unpopular. It gives them serenity.

5:47 pm

rururocks

you'll get a new posting for that comment

5:48 pm

rururocks

at least in those days Dr. God was taking in monies for all these fake players under assumed names

5:50 pm

rururocks

caped crusader.. another nutjob

5:51 pm

rururocks

it was obvious who that player was

5:53 pm

MollyL

Dr. God knows who all the fake players were. He just refused to do anything about it.

5:54 pm

mkg

i am not a fake.

5:54 pm

MollyL

Who said you were?

5:54 pm

rururocks

if he wouldn't get rid of a crazy stalker.. why bother with fakes who would pony up $15

5:56 pm

MollyL

Him not getting rid of the crazy stalker really bothered me. It still does. Web board owners are responsible for things like that. The guy could have done serious damage, since he had home addresses.

5:58 pm

MollyL

Not to mention not getting rid of the posters who scammed people out of a lot of money they supposedly donated to another player's hardship.

5:59 pm

rururocks

no kidding on both of those

5:59 pm

rururocks

that was likely only wildcat.. who still does play.

6:00 pm

rururocks

the lowest of the low.. stealing from people in need

6:00 pm

MollyL

No, wildcat had an accomplice. It was obvious from how the money was collected.

6:01 pm

rururocks

I'm not so sure about that ...

6:03 pm

UntitledDocument

There were fake accounts? I knew there were some younger folks occasionally, and some people got annoying, but fake accounts?

6:03 pm

rururocks

oh yeah... lots of them

6:04 pm

MollyL

Oh you can't be serious. The money that didn't get sent to wildcat was sent to her partner in crime.

6:15 pm

rururocks

good night.. have a good evening molly

6:18 pm

MollyL

Later Ru. The clue fest may now continue.
