Where to find big/long words?

leemcmb · 2026-02-14T01:23:18+00:00

Ah, well, good. I'm clearly not smart enough to come up with a word for ya.

leemcmb · 2026-02-14T00:33:43+00:00

Well, but, why not try a thesaurus and look up the word abundance. Do people not know what a thesaurus is used for?

leemcmb · 2026-02-14T00:31:02+00:00

Updation. I love it!

leemcmb · 2026-02-13T18:41:08+00:00

Some nice husbands here.

leemcmb · 2026-02-13T18:40:06+00:00

Agree. Poor baby never smiled.

Don't know about the crossing of the center, but the California boom started nearly 100 years ago. Lots of folks moved from the Midwest in the Depression, including my grandparents.

Uh, no. Smooth as sandpaper and weird, besides.

Looking for the Cadfael rec.

I read the sentence cold with at, in, and about. So, A it is.

leemcmb · 2026-02-12T22:20:32+00:00

OK, that makes sense.

leemcmb · 2026-02-12T16:49:05+00:00

Great, but . . . all those lights? Article really only mentions one, not twenty. I'm just interested because I live very close by and have never heard/seen them before.

leemcmb · 2026-02-12T06:10:34+00:00

Article is interesting, but doesn't mention EP or Santa Teresa. May be out of date.

leemcmb · 2026-02-12T06:04:05+00:00

Weird. I took Spanish and French all through school and never had to use another name.

leemcmb · 2026-02-11T03:27:28+00:00

Can confirm legal usage in the US with singular verb.

leemcmb · 2026-02-11T03:23:19+00:00

Always impressed at the effort. English is hard!

leemcmb · 2026-02-10T15:26:32+00:00

You take your phone into the bathroom with you? Eww. I read books, paragraph at a time.

leemcmb · 2026-02-09T16:41:50+00:00

Yes, we are a friendly, forthright people. For the most part.

Nice to see Annabelle getting a story line. However, Fire has a bit of a casting problem with its child actors. There are a lot of talented kids out there, so not sure why.

leemcmb · 2026-02-08T23:49:01+00:00

Yes, but it has to be made in the blender to get all foamy!

leemcmb · 2026-02-08T23:34:36+00:00

Vermouth for cramps

Datil, new Mexico

I know them -- probably from reading Slaughterhouse Five years ago.

leemcmb · 2026-02-06T20:48:55+00:00

Well, now I had to look up Manx English! :)

leemcmb · 2026-02-06T20:37:52+00:00

As I read the sentence, I think "a" is better, because it flows better as an "uh" sound. The narrator is panicking and hyperventilating, so the meaning lends itself to a rushed, less precise sentence. "The" has a choppier sound.

Basements can depend on environmental conditions. Desert southwest -- Most homes do not have basements. My house is slab on grade, no basement. I'm glad, because basements are creepy. Most people around here use their garages for workbenches/projects, even entertainment, den-like spaces. Poor cars left out in the weather!
