Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Add me to the ranks of the Not-Wronged-By-Nilly. And to those who appreciate the yearly Yom Kippur post. It's both informative and encouraging of personal introspection, so thanks for not offending me in any way and for providing this yearly insight.

And on a separate note: Job~ma, Dylan!

There are too many possible words in today’s spelling bee. Who has time for that many words??

Also I have no more meetings today and while I should get things done I don’t wanna.

Life only allows me so much time to do all my daily games, so I always do 10 words and move on. They need to have an archive for Pips! I want to go back to the beginning when I wasn't doing them.

Also, on yesterday's Spelling Bee, I took longer than usual, so I looked today to see what other words were on the list. For all the words they disallow, yesterday had fanfic and antifa.

In awesome news today, I stopped by the farm market and they had beautiful bi-color corn and absolutely gorgeous tomatoes. Also lots of pumpkins and mums, but I wasn't in the market for those.

Omg are you kidding Laura?? I put in “fanfiction” yesterday and it said no, so I assumed “fanfic” wouldn’t be allowed! Bananas.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

They keep taking games away from me. I have a frikkin' NYT subscription from my office, I'm not paying for my own just to pay fifty cents more to get games.

They took the Mini, Tiles... if they mess with WORDLE its going to be war.

Completely illogical!

I have a running grudge against them for not allowing "mana" when they include many a less familiar word. I always try just before entering "manna" just in case they've changed their mind.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

What odds would you give that "manna" is on their list?
