HAJJURISDICTION
JURISDICTION-NAH
LOL
Hey HR!
That was mine also!
Then I decided to spice it up:
JURISDICTION NACHO!
😎🐝
Same, but that was my OA
Same! Like NACHO
Same. Didn’t expect nah to work, thought I’d try it before using oa.
JURISDICTION—NOAH
“Only two animals of each kind may come aboard!”
Another LB mystery: Why is NOAH accepted?!?
So far I’m only seeing the usual definition, that’s it’s a proper name.
Nice TI
Weird. I saw NOAH right away and immediately dismissed it as a proper noun.
“Jurisdiction? …Nah.” – the supreme court
HAJ – JURISDICTION
Here comes the OA with a J-bridge. You really don’t know about something until it arrives.
Twice in a row that it is easy for me.
………..
(This site is 1 hour late.)
OA.
HAJ / JURISDICTION Had this last night, but couldn’t post it… and quickly, too.

Hey PETEROUX,
Excellent find! Good job! 👍🤗
I hope one of my interested students will find the OA. I will post it tomorrow. Evening here…
Mr.DAREDAVEL
Sorry you didn’t catch the OA.
FRUGAL – LICHENS
Excellent finds tho. Good job! 👍🤗
Is one of these the OA?
careful / lashings
glacier / refurnish
sulfur / reaching
engulfs / sriracha
flusher / reaching
refusal / lurching
flushing / glaciers
furnace / english
JURISDICTIONS – SHAD
“This is my river!” said the fish.
haha-wasn’t that the opening line of a classic childrens’ book that ends up being about sharing?…
Authored by Steph, I’m thinking 🙂
Same here! I used to love eating Shad & Roe growing up. Not sure you can get it anymore, but it was delicious!
Thanks SusanM for the tip about Strands! Enjoying it!
Thanks Steph, for the inspiration!
(I’ve been writing and illustrating children’s books for the past couple of years, though none are published yet.)
JURISTIC-CHANCROID.
a serious flaw in the justice system
Nice! Juristic was the first word I tried. Got as far as Juristic Chord. Now I know how to complete it and that I never stood a chance of finding it 🙂
JIHADIST – TOUCAN – NOIR
Bird on a mission.
Hey Steph!
I came back to LB this evening (about 8:30pm here) and found JURISTIC CHANCROID also.
Thought maybe I’d be the only one. I had to look up CHANCROID.
Scary disease.
JURISDICTIONS – SHISHA Segregated puffing
JIHADS—SUCTORIAN
Yikes, the amoebas revolt!
I had to research SUCTORIAN, as that field is not in my wheelhouse.
☕
Ha! Same Mark… I didn’t know suctorian, but played suctorion first and felt my way there. I’m honored to have a solution in common with the LB Terminator!
Also toiled with…
authors, croutons, torchon,
OA and right quick. Gratifying, after several days of timing out. . .
OA mercifully fast.
Jursidictions/ Shad.
same and quickly to compensate for yesterday’s fiasco
jurisdiction – nah
NDJUA — AHISTORIC
Jurisdictions – Shah
Super fast today! Quiet a few possibilities with Jurisdiction(s)
Jurisdictions-Sash. Hours behind loads of you as in the UK!
Ditto
Was beginning to think I was the only one with this particular iteration!
JURISDICTION NACHO
Same here!
KJ, We shared the Mexican connection! My first in two, too.
JURISDICTIONS SASH!
Oh happy day!
Jurisdiction Nah
Here as well. “Jurisdiction? We don’t need no stinkin’ Jurisdiction”, in Alito’s famous words I just made up. Also Haj Jurisdiction, ie, Mecca.
Fastest OA I’ve ever had. I think because whenever I see “J” I intuitively look for a “u” next and often the prefix “juris”. And today that was the right path!
NONJURISTIC* CHAD
I found HAJ and then I found JURISDICTIONS but for some reason I didn’t put them together. Instead I went for JURISDICTIONS – SHAH.
I kinda think it lends itself to a better TI! Shahs have entire empires as their jurisdictions!
JURISDICTIONS SASH. Was trying HADJ (dictionary spelling) rather than HAJ — didn’t work.
OA almost immediately. Saw that ~TION was in play, and JURISDICTION was the first word I found while trying to figure out what to do with the J. Tried HAJ as a guess and when it worked, I figured it would end up being OA, so I went back and came up with JURISDICTION – NAH, which feels like the perfect rebuttal to Ezersky’s use of a loan word for a J connection. 😝

Jihadists-suction-nor
Was my best effort today.
After a couple of days with no joy, I got JURISDICTION-NACHO almost immediately today. I didn’t even think of trying NAH for my second word!
