-- Forewarned is worth an octopus in the bush.
From the same site: [doe | foe | hoe | roe | toe | woe | aloe | floe | oboe | shoe | sloe | canoe | throe | tiptoe | overshoe | snowshoe | hammertoe | horseshoe | mistletoe] [is | ism | isis | isle | isles | islet | issue | island | islets | isobar | isomer | issues | islands | isobars | isolate | isomers | isotope | isthmus | islander | isolates | isotopes | issuance | isthmian | isinglass | islanders | isosceles | isthmuses | isolationism]
or (anything ending with o) eisteddfod So "oboe issues", "doe island", "canoe issuance", "foe isotopes", and yes, "cockatoo eisteddfod". Charles Greathouse Analyst/Programmer Case Western Reserve University On Thu, May 15, 2014 at 8:04 AM, Michael Kleber <michael.kleber@gmail.com>wrote:
