Getting to look through the dictionary is part of the fun! We did it as a drinking game once back in college (boy we were a bunch of nerdy squares!). If you created a word that got less than 10 points or used less than 3 letters you had to take a drink. Using the dictionary was necessary because by halfway through the game everyone was bombed and could no longer spell for sh*t!
I usually win at scrabble, but a good friend of mine, who went to Harvard grad and then on to Vanderbilt for a PHD whooped my ass like a red-headed step child! That was humiliating!
ENY, it was made worse by the fact she called my older siblings to come have a look. Mom would never make fun of me, but my siblings tore me apart and, to this day, they never let me forget about any dumb thing I did; and there were many!
“Hmm, now I’m wondering which one of you I can beat at Scrabble!”
Don’t wonder too much!
Actually hubby and I play scrabble all the time. But I’ll admit we cheat. When the other person is creating a word the other is flipping through the scrabble dictionary looking for long words.
Haha ENY – unfortunately Scrabble has nothing to do with your vocabulary/writing skills when your a novice. If your really motivated try memorizing all the 2/3 letter words and all the small words you can make with Q,X,Z and only use them if you can score more then 30 pts.
Ugh – i will NOT play online scrabble today i will NOT!

Haha Snappy – damn Ivy League educated fools!
For some reason Thai people are very good at english scrabble. not sure why.
Snappy, I hope you realize that making fun of red-headed step children means you are insecure and think you are morally superior. 🙂
ENY, I meant to ask you earlier if you’re coming tomorrow night.

Hey BTW Biff, that was a funny “run away” story, too. I can see your Mom cracking up inside as she watched you wait for her to freak out.
