scrabble

Wife talked me into playing scrabble the other night. It is a fun game, but I've become very dependent on  "spell check" in my computer, so have forgotten how to spell some key words. I found with scrabble, if you put the tiles down confidently and quickly add the points, most people wont question you about the word. However, most people does not include my wife. Maybe she just knows me too well. Anyhow, for the 100th time in a row, I lost.
One of the things scrabble does teach you is to see how to rearrange letter for maximum points. 
Look at these:  THE EYES:When you rearrange the letters it can become THEY SEE
Look at this one,When you rearrange the letters:GEORGE BUSH can become - HE BUGS GORE.

 Dont understand how I can be so cleaver and still loose the game to her every time. She must cheat. Just Say'n

    Every year our family makes a trip to Windham, Maine for a family reunion. My sister and her husband who are 83 years young welcome generations of people to what has become a tradition. We bring tents and deposit their lawn on a lake with adults, children, babies, chairs, dogs and friends. Instead of being entertained by technology, we play board games and have Bocci tournaments. We sing songs and catch up on the past year's events. I love your post about scrabble and the hint you shared I will now have an edge when we play on July 4th. Thanks.

    I suspect that it is a wonderful feeling for your wife to regularly edge out someone as articulate as yourself. I love Scrabble...play on FB...several games a day....It is my insurance policy that all my bits and bytes are all still in there and can be retrieved at will....

A review of J T Twerell's Catch and Release by Featheredquill Book Reviews

Readers’ hearts will be beating hard as they join in this adventure where people come back from the dead, wear so many facades you’re not quite sure who’s on the good or bad side of the law, while experiencing the growing attraction between the lady ‘cop’ who could be lying through her teeth and the normally bored psychologist who stepped into the adventure of a lifetime.

The author, a practicing psychotherapist, certainly knows how to light a fire at the beginning of a tale and guide the reader through all types of personalities and red herrings that will make them very disappointed when the story has to come to an end.

Quill Says: This is one psychologist who has met his match when it comes to a truly astonishing female!
