Game OT
Lois gave me the following the game http://www.freerice.com/index.php she
knows I love word games. I did discover a new word - grimalkin (can I hear the whisper of dictionary pages, hehe) or perhaps I am doing all you brainy types an injustice, I know I had to look it up . Bev -- -- The e-mail of the species is more deadly than the mail. |

I've been playing Bubbels since 2004 I think, so I'm quite sure I've accumulated more hours than just one week's worth. And I'll bet the same is true for you, too. -- Joyce To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. ^..^ |

And, like a sucker, I clicked anyway. And was subsequently late for work. But I did manage to donate over a kilo of rice, and had a maximum vocabulary rating of 46 (average 42) without cheating.

So, does this go on forever or what? You just keep clicking? I guess there's no way to win or lose. I notice that when you get a word wrong, it will ask you that word again a few rounds later, before you have a chance to forget what the real meaning is. It was fun trying to guess the meaning of words I didn't know. But I finally got sick of playing at 2360 grains. So does the UN really donate rice when you get a word right? That's pretty cool. -- Joyce To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. ^..^ |

Grimalkin: a cat You just put up the URL for my version of bubbles. 3200 grains or rice and I haven't left the site yet. DAMN YOU BEV. You are evil and insidious. Pam S. |

Yowie That's the most vocabulary fun I've had in a long time. Mostly from reading very dated English novels I suspect. Charlie was looking over my shoulder, and was of the opinion they were making words up, only I kept getting them right. Not that there is anything wrong with his vocabulary, just it doesn't tend toward the archaic. Jo |
