TEACHERS should have better grammar than this!

Bingos of the day so far:

OBTAINER (118 points), BREATHERS (67 points) - against Donna H.

High-scoring words of the day so far:

OBTAINER (118 points) - against Donna H. [5W] {a good deficit-erasing word!}
CAPITA (132 points) - against Shelley R.-B. [5W, 3L on C, hook off MISS to make AMISS]
ADSORBS (135 points) - against Tricia C. [two 3W]
FORESAW (234 points) - against Teri L. [5W, 5L on F, hook off BITE to make BITER]

I totally owned that annoying Arthur S. dude at Wordscraper... 1628 points to 121! He kept on talking and talking in the chat box, when I had decided that "I'm from Minnesota" didn't really need a response. I'm not PARANOID, normally... but for some reason, I didn't like it when he asked where I was from! Now he's started ANOTHER game, which I'll delete. (no, I don't have control issues!) On another note, I'm finally playing a game with David Littlefair... yay!


Grammar note: All teachers should proofread what they write, especially before sending it off to a group! Just got this email from a chronic offender: Please to bring your own bowls for dinner, preferably a tupperware with a lid because then you can bring your dirty dishes home closed - we don't have a sink to do the dishes now. Thanks. IS SHE ON DRUGS?! WHAT THE HECK.


Leslie completed the quiz "What crayon color are you?" with the result Cornflower. You are Cornflower! Hey, it's okay... don't be fooled by this powder blue color. On first sight, people look at you and think you are just good-looking. They're right, but there is much more they don't see on the surface. You enjoy life and know how to have fun. But when you have a job to do, you get it done and never falter.

Facebook quizzes taken from Jane and Bexy:

Leslie completed the quiz "What font are you" with the result Helvetica. You are Helvetica. You really do care about fonts; you watch documentaries about them, and know what kerning is. Half of your furniture is from Ikea or some other Scandinavian source. You probably retook this quiz if you got Comic Sans the first time around.

Leslie just took the "are you a retard" quiz and the result is smart. No one likes nerds.

Bexy completed the quiz "Which flower are you?" with the result Poppy. You are childlike and carefree. You resist most forms of structure, and choose to live life outside of the lines. You are compassionate and caring, but often lack the follow-through to put your plans into action. You can be self-absorbed, and often bounce from one thing to another before completing a task. But the sense of freedom you maintain by your lack of commitment allows you to follow your own pursuits as you wish, like traveling and exploring all the time.
