IP Word Fun

Because I am an irrepressible word geek (and number geek) I think about these things during my morning commute up Highway 1.

Ever think about all the words you can make with the letters in the word "male"?

There's lame which is kind, well, lame.

There's meal which might be used to explain the so-called maneater women.

There's elma which I'm guessing is some kind of slight against southern men.

There's ale which is fitting and right and as it should be.

There's elm which is just another word for trees.

There's mal which is bad, bad, evil double plus ungood.

And finally there's elam which is interesting because he is or used to the kicker for the Denver Broncos and has kicked like a 56 yard field goal before.

Anyway, be glad I can't post to the blog during my commutes are I'd have a front page about 15 miles long and filled with even more stupid and random garbage (like how stupid people look when they smoke while driving, how some people swerve about a mile out of the way of bikers while some swerve into our paths, like the joys of chasing a cop bike down the center lane). Instead, I forget most of it and remember just a few tidbits.

By the way, this post was brought to you by a game that's been eating up my sleeptime for the last month or so, Text Twist which I've now got on the Clie and have topped out at over 135,000 points. Oh yeah, I went there, I did that and I'm going back for more. But maybe after I go waste some time on the Boom Boom Volleyball because I HAVE to get past the 5th level to get the game to play topless because cartoon boobs are still boobs, right?
