Quote: The only ten letter word that you can spell with the top row of letters on your keyboard is "typewriter"
yes. this was the brainchild of early typewriter engineers. as we all forget where we are, or what it was we walked back into the house to get when thecarisrunningyouarelateforworkandyouhavetodrive25milesinaraginghailstorm, or what we are doing. when it's the, what we are doing while typing issue, all you have to do is apply your Scrabble skills to the top row of letters.
now of course any good Scrabbler(no...not Scrappler) knows you only get to pick seven letters, so you'd have to make yourself a goodoldfashionedrunonword to make the 10 letter word, typewriter.
thus attaching your seven letters to either side of the already existing word on the board "pew" you will have in fact used all seven letters, garnered an extra 50 points for being so darn clever, and in all likelihood landed on a couple of bonus squares as well. with a "Y", a "W" and a "P" that could add up to a mighty little bundle of points.
now i don't know if this is on par with things you oughtta know or if it is a slick little unintended hijack. i hafta say though the whole rambling felt wonderfully Arlo-esque.
