I ran across an entry by Steve and he sounded like my kind of person. I am also left handed, skipped a few grades, took calculus in high school, and have not really had a job in 25 years. My luck, however, seems to running out and my wife is getting mad at my lack of income.
Anyway, I most recently invented and published a game to defeat those Scrabble players who memorize all those short odd words from the Official Scrabble Players dictionary. I have always considered Scrabble a rather unfortunate "best word game," because you never get to play interesting words among other flaws.
I thought some members of these forums might find the game interesting. You can find reviews, comments, a free 2-player Internet version, and, of course, the order page for the physical board game at:
WildWords Crossword Game For Crossword Game and Word Game Lovers (mistakenly spelled "Wild Words" sometimes)
I guess this is kind of spam, but these days when everyone is dumbing down everything, some of you might find it interesting to see that I tried to smarten something up.
