Really enjoyed this and did well - despite a few guesses
(Did you know dhole is a wild dog?)
Gonna pass this on to a few tautological friends at work so they can add to their vast yet repetitive vocabs...
I lost it at level 43 with "ecchymosis"

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

I'm going for quantity not quality. I've been as high as level 50 but mostly hover around 39-42. I was at 1850 grains of rice. Went to another screen and .... back to zero.

Man, that is addictive! I hope it's for real. But even if it isn't, no harm done I guess. I'm hovering around 47-48, 1000 grains so far.

Thom told me about it yesterday. I keep one browser window open to it and play off and on all day. When I get to 5,000 grains I close the window.

it's the neoteric way to fundraise
Anyone else find it ironic that the free ad at the bottom is for Googles "10 fat burning rules - loose 9 lbs in 10 days with these 10 easy rules of diet and fat loss."
but I guess the people getting the rice are glad this is here.

That was not only fun, but I feel a little smarter (and maybe I'm doing a little good, too). But, why do I feel like I'm taking the SAT again- that or doing the NY Times crossword puzzle???

Very addictive, plus I was surprised at all the words I knew. Thanks a bunch for this site. I shall pass it along to others.
