Holy Taoism, whiskey, RED PANDA, bagels, Risk, GOOD OMENS, and Josh

High-scoring words of the early afternoon:

BOWFINS (472 points) - against Callie S. [two 5W, hook off MILE to make SMILE]
HOLIEST (120 points) - against Kelly R. [4W]
TAO (154 points) - against Katy H. [4W used twice, two 2W both used twice, hook off MIGRATE to make TI / AG / OR] {a good deficit-erasing word!}
ROBALOS (108 points) - against Lisa K. [3W, 2W]


Teunis and I discussed weird dreams, reactions, Robin, Cat, Brandy, sleeping in, the WHISKEY GALORE stuff being found and still drinkable (ocean making a great refrigerator!), and Finland banning underage tanning bed use / lowering blood-alcohol level. Also discussed GOOD OMENS / Neil Gaiman / Terry Pratchett / Jareth / comics / Risk / supernatural stuff, bagels, coffee, CROWLEY, recipes, glutinous rice flour, Nathan and butchered versions of his name, 62 episodes of THE RED PANDA radio show, silly experiments with the electronic pickup now that it's daytime, and more. Josh (joshua_e / aint_no_nothin) surprisingly messaged me on AIM - it's been a LONG time!
