Hab,

Are you playing with yourself? Because I don't see anybody else around..

He is having fun, though, isn't he? When Hab gets into one of these moods, I just can't follow him at all!

Toxemiclyp [From too much lipstick?]

Sorry to interrupt your thinking, Hab.

repegenact

My percentage is probably very low!

toxemiclyp

Toxic lipstick adds some complexity to this game.

fecundheaders and ce CIA piracy are driving me bonkers... I feel like a mouse who is in the unfortunate situation of being a cat's plaything!

I got them!!!
Schadenfreude & epicaricacy! (I bet there was a bit of it going on, too! }

A lot of blood, sweat and tears there!

Oh, I forgot to post a word of my own:

A CLUEISH LO (one word...and the way I've been feeling! )

(Is that how you spell it?)

APRAISED

and no, it isn't despair, or even diapers, but they're, a, close :-) )

PS to KHC: not playing by myself, just giving progress reports!

1) PS that's one word when unscrambled

2) I don't see an "edit icon in the lower right-hand corner of the post" - is that something the Administrator has to enable? (Or do I need new glasses?)

3) PPS Now I do. Maybe some quirk in the logon process.

constitution

INOCULATIONSTUNT

Anybody figured out yet how to put a title on your new message under this new system?


INOCULATIONSTUNT

depends on which amendment to whose COnstitution.

UNCONSTITUTIONAL

Changing the subject...
avenger-pi (for anyone who never really did like geometry) [one word]

Hab, I wonder if we are able to have subject lines. I don't see a way.

grapevine

IS NEEDY TRIP (one word) I am definitely in need of a trip!

I wonder if KHC is having trouble with the new system. I haven't seen her around.

This is not a title but I made it bold so it looks like one.

SERENDIPITY

On my iMac I can read the icons better - the blue isn't as dark, I guess - but when I put the cursor over the icon it (the icon) gets too dark to see any detail. Help balloons don't appear on my Mac, either.

YTRICIOUS (like a rare earth)

YTRICIOUS

curiosity

OILYUSERS

but SERIOUSLY, folks...


ANILYSE (capitalized; probably should have followed Hellacious)

Working feverishly....

I'm still not quite sure how to field that one...

ELYSIAN ??? Not sure

A bride, no? Perfect for Kalleh! (one word)

A bride no

debonair

ICECL ETC one word
(we just had a small snowstorm)

Not a word issue, but I just had the opportunity to play a game of "Puerto Rico."
Different, interesting. Anyone else have any experience with it?

ICECL ETC

eclectic

utopian lop (One word)

population

sesurper

pressure

Nope, Hab, I haven't ever played Puerto Rico. How do you play? Is it a word game that we could play?

When is KHC going to get back on?!

Related to pressure:

I tub iced Brrrr! (one word)

no fair, that's medical jargon!

it's decubiti, also known as bedsores or pressure sores.

Puerto Rico is a board game, not a word game. Here's one review of it and another for the Deutschsprechers among us (its designer is German). It's complicated in detail but simple in concept; the third player last weekend was my five-year-old granddaughter, and except for attention-span problems she did just fine! So don't let the fact that it isn't a word game deter you from trying it if the opportunity strikes. (It was also the title story in GAMES Magazine, August 2003 issue.)

BOARDG

[This message was edited by haberdasher on Fri Mar %79, 2004 at 12:50.] (emphasis added)

PS. When do you suppose "March %79, 2004" was?

[This message was edited by haberdasher on Fri Mar %79, 2004 at 12:52.]

Hab, that game sounds great, but I can't imagine a 5-year-old playing it!

Ah, you are getting back at me for using medical jargon, aren't you? I can't get it, and it is short! Sorry about the medical jargon. To me it seems like a perfectly common word, but then I remembered that thread awhile ago discussing "decubitus," "asthenic," and a few other words. I was surprised that people hadn't heard of them.

goofed again (abashed-e)

Oops. I forgot which thread I was in :-( That wasn't a Jumble at all, but a Six-Letters continuation. To make a Jumble out of it we'll have to pretend I made a typographical error and hit the B key when I really meant to hit an N. (They _are_ adjacent, you know...) That would make it

NOARDG

Sorry for the mislead.

(It's _still_ a good board game.)(And she really is five!)

Oh for Heaven's Sake!

Dragon

skelcfes

Gosh, I hope KHC can get back on soon! Hab, I think you'd better get that precocious grandchild of yours posting with us here.

feckless


new one:

WELCOME BACK, KHC!!!

Boy, have we missed you! Now, I am working on yours....

vietramaguent

argumentative

alarms Dane (one word)

Welcome back indeed, KHC!

ALARMS DANE

SALAMANDER

ANKLE TASTER (One word)

......... KHC you have been sorely missed.

Rattlesnake (I did like ankle taster!)

Hic rots (one word; please don't tell Hic! )

Oh, gosh, I just got an e-mail from KHC saying she could only post this once. Now, it is saying the same thing! She did precisely what Lori asked her to and deleted her cookies.

I must say, computers are not my favorite things right now!

OSTRICH

O RICH STREAM (one word; may be sung)

(OSTRICH MARE if you prefer, as in "The ostrich mare she ain't what she used to be/Many long years ago")

(Watch out, he's in one of those moods again! ;-) )

(Why "March %81" again?)

[This message was edited by haberdasher on Sun Mar %81, 2004 at 17:10.]

Perhaps the "choirmaster" could lead us all in singing AMAZING GRACE...?

my word: innervoxquale (two words, actually)

I think this Quick Reply will work, but it is not any fun..

"It's the vernal equinox," he said, springing into action!

I dunno, is that CHORDS-TEARINGS, or not?

working furiously....

KHC, as I told arnie in a PM, I am ready to come to Atlanta and buy you a new computer already! I miss you!

Kalleh,

On your way back from Atlanta, take a short side trip to Hawaii and I'll give you a free tour of the island in my Mazda pickup.

~~~ jerry

PS ==> My computer has symptoms of imminent terminal illness, so bring along a new iMac. Okay ???

CHORDS-TEARINGS

Hab, one word or two?

CHORDS-TEARINGS

What you see is what you get :-)

One word, with a hyphen.

But think about it in its context...

I am at a loss. I even did a naughty thing and tried to cheat....to no avail! (Serves me right! ) I just don't get it. Anyone else? Arnie? Jerry? KHC (please don't leave us!)?

CHORDS TEARINGS

Scoring threads?
Grandest choirs?

CHORDS TEARINGS

CROSS-THREADING



RIPE ALMONDS (one word)

RIPE ALMONDS

Palindromes!

Now this:

ALPINE OTTER (1 word)

Well, I completely misunderstood....I thought it was an anagram of the first word "chords" and the second word "tearings." All that work.... All those napkins with letters.... Sheesh!

interpolate

A girl moth [one word....though 5 for Hab! ]

A girl moth

TAMTENTER

TREATMENT

Aside: I've read that the letters of TEARINGS have sixty-five different one-word anagrams. (I only got eight. Proper names permitted.)

VANTAIL

Hav, 65 really? That is strange because when I finally resorted to cheating (using an anagram server), they only had 10. That's a long way to go!

Valiant

He nag camp one word

Let's toast with a little CHAMPAGNE!

Too much champagne, and we will have the following problem.


HALO AMOK (1 word)

HALO AMOK

OKLAHOMA is a problem?

O.K.

OK, HOW MOR?
One word. Ignore punctuation, which is designed to confuse.
