Ah yes, some things come out later. I was devastated by Marge the other day. I refuse to play scrabble with Marge or her family, because they use the open dictionary approach. If you are having trouble forming a word, just crack open the dictionary and see what you can find. Well, I think that takes all of the challenge out of the game and I don't have the advantage of my extensive vocabulary.
We were discussing this one more time the other night and Marge was saying, "I love to play scrabble and you should play it with me sometimes even if you don't like to. After all, I go to concerts with you and I often don't know or don't like the performer. But I go because you go and I usually have a good time. Well, I never knew that was a sacrifice for her! Geez, 6 years together and still more to learn.
