Letter Rip


We use letters every day to create words and acronyms and all sorts of other things that are comprised of letters. Sometimes we use these letters on their own to identify a location, a grouping, or a quality grade. Even sometimeser we use these in product names, descriptions, and myriad other pop culture references. That's where this list comes in.

The following are words or designations that fit with a specific letter of the alphabet. Some match with more than one, but that other one is wrong. See if you can match 'em all. They are in no particular order, unless you count totally random as an order.

Special thanks goes to Kari, who helped me with that particular last one which eluded me to the ... well, a lot.

Oh, and by the way ... each letter is used only once. So this is kinda like Sudoku or whatever. Hence the 26 clue-thingys.

  1. Letters make up alpha bits and alphabet soup as well. Personally I like S and Q, but B and Z can suck it.

  2. I always had a disdain for V. It always seemed so ... damned ... smug.

  3. I'm doing fairly well at this, but I don't want to steal all the fun. So, for no apparent reason, I will take G-Spot, O-Face, and Preparation H, and I'll leave the rest.

  4. Cute, I'll mail you my answers when I get with my Christmas shit. O_?

    X is the one I have the most trouble..silent half the time.

  7. Hey Elliot, come a little closer so I can smack you. Thanks!

    I'm pleased I could be the wind beneath your wings, Stuart. My royalty check is in the mail, right?

  8. Elliott - nice work! The only ones you missed are:

    C-Note
    L-Tryptophan
    R-134a
    Mister T (which Shannon astutely pointed out)

    note: X and Y are interchangeable, and both are right, but I'm going to tell you you're wrong because I feel like being contrary tonight. So there.

    Everyone else - bow down to Elliott. No really. Do it.

    Kari - I faxed you a twenty. Cool?

  9. I was sobbing at my desk yesterday for missing Mr. T. He was such an iconic figure in my childhood, I should be mocked, not pitied.

    And the Y-wings were just a joke. I thought about interchanging them, but that felt so wrong.

    My wv is Subarcad. A durable little 4wd with tail fins.

  10. And Kari, my longtime motto is 'Ruining People's Joy Since 1971'.
