Are you counting 'y' as a vowel? |

There are at least 2 that I know of... The shortest: Caesious The other: facetious or facetiously (if you're counting the y) Now your turn....name one of the three words in the english language that uses all five vowels in reverse alpha order. |

If 'y' doesn't count: uncomplimentary |

Lake_Bueller, Facetious certainly describes us! You got it!! (Caesious can't be counted because it was changed to Mohammed - lol.) Let me try yours: Subcontinental? Wes!!!!! What's the escort vehicle!!???!!!! |

Hello |

Off topic (i.e. not a word puzzle): Just thinking out loud, Uke's has a web page and off of that is a link for their HOG page. Has this group talked at all about doing a BRAG page? I know that many of us are on BadWeb, but instead of always backtracking through archives and posts, perhaps a simple web page might be a convenient place to post information about upcoming events, pictures from past events, officer information, Battletrax schedules, etc. or even another way to distribute the newsletter. Just curious if this has already been talked about (I've only been to two meetings) or if it's even worth talking about at all. Again just thinking out loud. Jason |
