Thinking I'll be on the course at least one day, as I'll likely be going tomorrow morning. Wednesday brings a dentist appt to have a cavity filled, and my oldest will get a stubborn baby tooth pulled. This is at least the third time she's had an adult tooth come in but not push the baby tooth out, which seems weird to me. But it's her last one, so once this one is gone, they can start lining up the adult tooth that should be in its place.

How's about you?

Today is Monday, May 9, the 129th day of 2022.
There are 236 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

On May 9, 1994, South Africa’s newly elected parliament chose Nelson Mandela to be the country’s first Black president.

On this date:

In 1860, writer J.M. Barrie, the creator of Peter Pan, was born in Kirriemuir, Scotland.

In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson, acting on a joint congressional resolution, signed a proclamation designating the second Sunday in May as Mother’s Day.

In 1945, with World War II in Europe at an end, Soviet forces liberated Czechoslovakia from Nazi occupation. U.S. officials announced that a midnight entertainment curfew was being lifted immediately.

In 1951, the U.S. conducted its first thermonuclear experiment as part of Operation Greenhouse by detonating a 225-kiloton device on Enewetak Atoll in the Pacific nicknamed “George.”

In 1962, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology succeeded in reflecting a laser beam off the surface of the moon.

In 1965, Russian-born American pianist Vladimir Horowitz performed publicly for the first time in 12 years with a recital at Carnegie Hall in New York.

In 1970, President Richard Nixon made a surprise and impromptu pre-dawn visit to the Lincoln Memorial, where he chatted with a group of protesters who’d been resting on the Memorial steps after protests against the Vietnam War and the Kent State shootings.

In 1974, the House Judiciary Committee opened public hearings on whether to recommend the impeachment of President Richard Nixon. (The committee ended up adopting three articles of impeachment against the president, who resigned before the full House took up any of them.)

In 1980, 35 people were killed when a freighter rammed the Sunshine Skyway Bridge over Tampa Bay in Florida, causing a 1,400-foot section of the southbound span to collapse.

In 2016, Filipinos went to the polls to elect Rodrigo Duterte, the controversial, tough-talking mayor of Davao city, to be their country’s next president.

In 2019, Pope Francis issued a groundbreaking new church law requiring all Catholic priests and nuns to report clergy sexual abuse and cover-ups by their superiors to church authorities.

In 2020, the Food and Drug Administration approved a coronavirus antigen test that could quickly detect virus proteins from swabs that were swiped inside the naval cavity. Rock ‘n’ roll pioneer Little Richard, known for his piercing wail, pounding piano and towering pompadour, died in Tennessee at the age of 87 after battling bone cancer; he had helped shatter the color line on the music charts while introducing Black R&B to white America.

Ten years ago: President Barack Obama declared his unequivocal support for same-sex marriage in a historic announcement that came three days after Vice President Joe Biden spoke in favor of such unions on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney repeated his opposition to gay marriage, telling reporters in Oklahoma City, “I believe that marriage is between a man and a woman.” Hair stylist Vidal Sassoon, 84, died in Los Angeles.

Five years ago: President Donald Trump abruptly fired FBI Director James Comey, ousting the nation’s top law enforcement official in the midst of an FBI investigation into whether Trump’s campaign had ties to Russia’s meddling in the election that sent him to the White House.

One year ago: The Biden administration loosened regulations on the transport of petroleum products on highways, as part of an effort to avoid disruptions in the fuel supply in the wake of a ransomware attack that shut down a major fuel pipeline system across the East Coast. Joyous reunions among vaccinated parents and children across the country marked Mother’s Day, the second one to be celebrated during the coronavirus pandemic. A man fatally shot six people at a Colorado birthday party before killing himself; police said he was upset after not being invited to the gathering thrown by his girlfriend’s family. Trainer Bob Baffert announced that Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit had tested positive for an excessive amount of a steroid. (State racing stewards disqualified Medina Spirit in February 2022, ten weeks after the horse’s death from a heart attack; they declared second-place finisher Mandaloun the Derby winner.)

Morning, muchachos.
How goes it, Raz?
I'm all right, T.  You?
All good. Looking forward to some Spring temps this week.
Speaking of which, just went out to bring the bins back and it's turning into quite a beautiful day out. 67 right now.

The real question of the day though - which Wordle answer did you get? The original one, like I did, or the one they replaced it with that was less "newsworthy", like my wife?

#324?  I got it on the 3rd guess. I wasn't aware there was controversy.

Cigar isn't bad at all, but they did get carried away with the box.

Controversy might be too strong a word, but it was changed from something that has been in the news an awful lot the last week or so.

I keep the game open in a tab in my phone's browser, whereas my wife searches for it every day. Apparently, my way has the tendency of not taking updates as well, which also happened several months ago with another word I can't remember at the moment.

In fact, we only found out there was a change when she sent me her grid, and it showed her second guess had the first 2 and last 2 letters green. I asked her what the hell she guessed that would've fit there, since it didn't make much sense with my solution.

I keep it open in a browser on the phone as well, but usually I hit refresh, so maybe that's the difference.  I got the final two letters correct on the first try, on the second I tried something from anatomy and got the first and third letters correct. So then I guessed something pertaining to some spectra of electromagnetic energy, and that did the trick.

The wife also got it in 3 guesses, but she got the first two letters initially, then all but the middle using the past tense of the eventual solution, if describing it as a verb.

Mine was slightly more difficult, IMFO, but I got it in 4 guesses.

What?!? They can do that? I haven't done it yet so I guess I'll be doing the latter.

Apparently, the game itself already had solutions programmed in for quite a while by the original creator. This particular word was already in there last year.

I purposely did that to attract more people to post but I might have to tighten the rules seeing that no one new is posting anyway.
