idle pursuit

the last couple of days, i've been hanging out at able2know.com, which is the biggest message board i've seen--not that i've seen very many. able2know claims that one could post a question there on any topic and expect a reply from somebody. while i haven't posed a question myself, nor found one i could answer, i have enjoyed playing a few trivia games there. a few minutes ago, i took a stab at the add-a-letter word game, changing unwist into Whitsun. that's allowable under the rules as i understand them, and twould be a bit of a stroke if it wins, ie. no one can make a new word from it. the other games i've played are non-competitive ones, where you can make a new song name or album title from a previous one, so long as the new one has at least one word in common with the old.

[incidentally, i've had to retype this because there was a blogger problem when i tried to publish it. from now on, i ought to select and copy the text with the browser before attempting to publish.]

[[and a good thing i did so, because blogger is broken & wouldn't allow me to create a new entry. btw, i did win a round of add-a-letter with Whitsun. :) ]]
