Morning!

QBwH for gibing which I thought I tried? LB got nudges for okra-adjectival, adjective-earlock.

cathwen I have been getting nudges from the community hints. Sort on all/oldest/ and look for Cynthia. She posts a link to a google doc with all the possibilities like O-A:A.-L 4:10 which helps narrow down the possibilities. And some people post hints to their solutions.

Good morning!

QB. QB yesterday, last word was dunno.

psychotic/crunk--I think one has to be slightly psychotic to even think that crunk was a legit word, let alone come up with it.

Happy solving!

Good afternoon!

QB for me yesterday, too, with 1LH to find my last word, journo. Today I'm at QB-1.

LB: Hooray! I finally found a 2fer yesterday: stickups-shorn. None yet today.

Happy puzzling!

Good morning!

Past genius with pangram so far.  I also got to QBABM yesterday with final word udon.

No luck on LB again! Congrats on your solutions! Some interesting words!

To those who have gotten the shingles set of vaccines: I know your experiences have been discussed here and there, but can you let me know what you would recommend in terms of scheduling? Husband has to get his soon, and we are trying to figure out how much down time he might need to prepare for and the timeline of issues.  I think I have heard/read that the second one is the worst but am not sure.  Thanks for any insights!

Still undilating from my appt with regular eye doctor, but he said everything looks the same as two years ago so just to keep seeing the retina guy and come back as needed.  Is that what happens? Just see a specialist? I thought he'd at least say come back every X years.

Happy solving!

I got the shingles vaccines last summer. You're right, the first one isn't bad, but I had some mild flu-like symptoms with the second the next day. So I would recommend timing the shots with that in mind. (I got mine on a Friday so that I could languish on Saturday.)

Good morning!

Almost QB. Last word yesterday was rattrap.

ab_grp, I don't do vaccines, other than the ones required for Covid because it takes me ages to recover from them. Good luck with yours!

Happy solving!
