bartshan-83 Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 Sorry for the absence...I was cooking like a piece of bacon at the Delaware beaches. I don't know how hot it was this weekend in upstate NY, but it was brutal in the DE/PA/MD area. I feel like Stewie in the tanning episode of Family Guy. Anyway: LAST WEEK: 1.

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 How the &*(% did you figure that out? Have you ever thought about going on wheel of fortune. . . I got a little lucky, because it happened to be one of my first guesses in the trial/error process. What keyed me in was the two O's in a row...in longer words, I figured the sound is more likely to be fragmented than the traditional "oo" as in toon, and there aren't too many long words with "oo".
