YAY! Number 7! Cool!! But I won’t get off work til 8pm PST.

I’m pretty sure Wikipedia said that the american spelling of “mollusk” is with the “k”. Oh, that’s a joke, isn’t it? :smack:

Wow, I must be incredibly average (or something). Just by throwing out answers off the top of my head I win 2 games within a week. Either that or I watch too many game shows on TV.  
Really, though, thanks for the game **Rosie**.
