Congrats to **Wallflower**!

**Twicks** - it is easy to screw it up! I figured out what is wrong with it, so I’ll download a fresh copy from my email. I’m afraid the game I scored for you might be wrong, though. Oh well - - -

Goddammit, I coulda be a contender! I went from “toaster” to “coffeemaker” on #10 – a difference of 25 – or 50 points. Grrr.

Thanks for a great game, **Dolores**!

Ugh, I somehow didn’t see that “the is a word NOT to use” part. x\_x  
And about the kind of shoes, I was thinking brand, not…well, kind. I need to clear my brain out with a big Q-Tip.  
That was fun!

Bah. For TWO questions, my first instinct would’ve netted me more points. In the case of Q10, it was a LOT more points. And the shoe question! (I blame my poor answer there solely on the “women’s article of clothing” question; it put me in that rut!)

Double bah.
