#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee Hard one today - got to get off your keister to catch 3 fish (an easy 1, a less common 1, a rare 1). Once you've carried them home, put them in a soup & add some crappy booze (be honest, you purchased it from a hoodlum)

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee #hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee This๐was not intimidating, tho' it was flooding us w/ words, like fleas teasing a Mexican lizard, causing it to be riled up & giving it chest pain. My mom's sis is sitting in on the lesson

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbe I needed both Newton & Leibniz versions of advanced math for this ๐. In the end, I felt like a madwoman at sea. I was doing a leggy French dance while singing a poem set to music, earning nasty wolf noises from the men

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee Those brightly colored birds are stand-offish. They hang around & leave their droppings that smell like rotting meat. Daddy should keep the canine predator away but he's gone to a tribal gathering. He's on the caveman diet

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee Here's a tool to help prove your right to be part of the upper-crust: Build a long duct across the door beam of the Mormon church - stick to the schedule. Phone pole workers will help you if you let them drink on the job

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee I'm waging a revenge war against an adolescent renter. I'll clean up his room while he's at a function where I have the benefit of a secret ally acting as a server but using a device w/ 2 receiving poles. I want a truce!

#nytsb #nytspellingbee #hivemind Lots of stuff to do w/ levels of O2- how much of it, lack of it, something that fights it, & a poisonous byproduct that has it. The X has been outed. Some non-X words: red food dye, a dumb bird, a dry frog, a dolt & T-rex

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee Nice short one for a summer Monday. Peeked into Phi Kappa house at a U. in Somerville, MA- heard guys passing wind & the faint hiss of opening beer cans. It smelled like a rodent cage & was run by a Soviet-era party hack

#hivemind #nytsb #nytspellingbee The female head of our family sits in her comfy seat (she's got stiff joints) eating yellowtail sushi & dorado while engaging in small talk about the tragic flaw in Oedipus Rex (~400 B.C.) while listening to a Mexican band
