January 31:

57% / 53% / 55%

Better than yesterday, at least. In J I ran "H.R.", missed one in Of Equal Measure, two in Sportsball, three in Lucky 13 and Theater, and four in World Facts. In DJ I missed one in Etymology, two in Movie Soundtrack, Nature, and NonSports "Ball", three in Artists and four in Way Back in the Day. Had no clue for FJ.

TSes: (J had 6; DJ had 6 + 1 DD) I got High Rollers, watts, Princess & the Frog, highball, and nepotism.

I said Redwood.

I got the missed clues of water polo (wild guess that I was shocked was right), high rollers, watts, high ball, Pliny and nepotism.

I got the entire category of "ball" right and movie soundtracks wrong.

I am in the process of planning a trip to that part of Alaska, so I got FJ!  

I also got the TS of High Rollers, stone, watts, The Princess and the Frog, highball, turkey tail, and nepotism.

[Driad]

One clue reminded me of a riddle in the category Mythology and Medicine: "A mother's kids played loud music that gave her this type of earache. It was so bad that she killed them."

My station cut in again for a report on the latest plane crash, so I missed the interviews and I'm not sure what else.

That's twice this week.

There is too much tragedy in the world.

I have an internet-acquaintance in Philly but I wasn't sure where (she just posted a bit ago so clearly she's okay), and I started to write a comment that I was thinking about her after I saw the news last night...then I had to pause because I was thinking, "was it really just last night?" There's so much going on I feel like time has just lost all meaning...meanwhile I'm just home doing my usual Saturday morning stuff....
