Joel Rotenberg I'd love to know the story behind this picture.

More WWF fun

This makes play difficult


Invisible words don't help either

Shibam

From 73 Fascinating Historical Cities Of The World: "The houses of Shibam are all made out of mud brick and about 500 of them are tower houses, which rise 5 to 11 stories high, with each floor having one or two rooms. This architectural style was used in order to protect residents from Bedouin attacks."

Schooled

Got my arse kicked here, but on the plus side I got to find out about eclogite - very interesting rock.

Draw

Never had a draw before.

PaSsu Diary

Journal of an Ordinary Bhutanese A very engaging read.

No NEGRO

Unacceptable.

576

New high score.

Playfair

The Playfair Letters Project: "Letters from Ross Campbell Playfair
to his wife Mary (nee Ferris)"

Jaws | Flickr

Jaws: "I showed this photo to my wife, and she immediately thought it was a photo of a painting or drawing. Nope. I was walking around Shinjukugoyen (park) and there's this bridge that goes over some water. In that water are a bunch of these fish. It just happened that this one was coming right towards the surface and I aimed down and took one shot. And this is what I got."

Show TV series names on an iPad

ipad tv show names - I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere but I noticed after applying the latest iTunes update (10.2.2) that Apple have finally fixed the bug where the name of the TV series didn't appear under the icon. Yay!

WWF auto-resign

Shortened auto-resign times "As of today, random games will auto-resign after 5 days without a move and invite games after the 11th day with no moves."
I guess Player 2 didn't get the memo.

Hidden Heritage

Arjun Kumar's blog-The Times Of India: "There is a lot more to India’s heritage than the Taj".

Katzen

WWF Fun

WASHIER - Dude, that's 7 letters to start the game, but shouldn't one of them have been on the double word?


Just over the line by a couple of points here, but what gives with 3 points for the triple word two ways?


Busting the 500 - not a bad score.


What the heck with the random 'E'? It was there for a couple of turns then the app said that it needed to "repair my games" and quit on me. The game disappeared from my list when I restarted.


FARKED - Someone should let Drew Curtis know.


SQUELCH - Nice 7 letter join up, if I do say so myself.


WANKER - See next picture.


JISMS - See previous picture.


ACQUIRE - 162 points, nuff said.
