Shouldn't somebody have dealt a new word for round 1830 by now? I think
results of the last round were reported around noon (EDT) Friday. It's now
around 29 hours later.....

--Dodi

Toni won the deal. I haven't heard anything from her. Scott Crom is next in
line.

It came through perfectly fine (by e-mail) the first time here, as well as
all subsequent times including this latest one. All 21 defs numbered
perfectly correctly. Nothing wrong at all.

I'll take 10 & 19, please!

Becasue of our rather full weekend I have taken the liberty of making the

15:00 WestCoast USA
.... or thereabouts and etc

you up, to stick their claws firmly in your body,

one presupposes a NAD here

I was awoken this morning by a scuffle in our bedroom - our cat, who never
usually succeeds in catching anything, had caught and released a mouse and
was having to hunt it down again

FAWII : For anyone who is interested info - Dave's response arrived as a
reply to the group and a cc to the group and a cc to me on my other address

The site's still acting up. Johnny reports that he received three copies of
Dave's joke def. I got two, and FOUR copies of Dave's admission of the
error in reporting Chuck's vote on the last round. Is someone in
communication with the humans presumably behind all this?

I try to make sure "cc" is not checked -- all of a sudden, Google is
setting the default to making a cc!

I received only one copy of the message below. What do you suppose went wrong?

I'm just resetting the subject for the benefit of those who use the
Google Group on the web. I nearly didn't read this thread because it
was headed "Google Group Weirdness".

-- Tim L

Tim, I missed the thread entirely because it didn't have any subject line
when I viewed the Groups site. Which is why I'm only just responding now,
2 days later.

in the heat of the moment I neglected to add a title. Foreseeing a hectic
week-end I did allow a fairly long time to collect definitions. Tim changed
the thread title when there was still more than 24 hours to go - but while
doing so he said it was mistitled as "Google Group Wierdness" -- on my
records it just doesn't have a title at all which is obviously my fault

Thinking about it I can award votes at dealer discretion and so as this is
my fault I shall award you a DP
