Is Scrabble all fun and games until someone loses an 'I'?

Actually, it's not.
Either you have a sense of humor that is truly "unique" and see something that none can comprehend or you really don't get "Thought of the Day" at all (or you've no idea what Scrabble is).

You've never really got the hang of puns, have you?

I ate six prunes earlier this morning, the problem's "in your end".
(and that's a form of pun, as well, q.v.)

I thought his rewrite showed some promise.
Scrabble is all fun and games when someone looses and eye.

"Ha"
I'd have come up with a better response, but I'm running low on letters.

That's the argument against consumerfireworks here. You can loose an eye; something you can do once, or twice even..
no one does that three times.

Hi All,
I feeling nostalgic for simpler days long past follow Radsev advice a bought from Amazon the Apress gem that is 'Beginning x64 Assembly Programming' while I am not to sure it will for with my current gig. I think its going to be like other Apress books buy them, they sit on shelf for ages and then come off the shelf when it all goes sideways! I might also crack it Saturday afternoons when there is little else to do. But thanks 
Glenn.
Sorry having connection issues didn't realise this had already post (with raddevus spelt wrong!)

That is why most call them 'reference' books. You refer to them when you need them. Unfortunately, that is usually when things go sideways.
I still have a lot of old refence books that have been replaced by newer technology and the internet. I hold on to them because they remind me of better times, IMHO.
Cheers.

Me too, plus they are always there when the Net isn't!

*lol* I still have a bunch of Original IBM AT Tech Refs which include the INT21 reference and the electrical scheme of the machine mainboard/rs232 adapter etc.

Sooner or later things ALWAYS go sideways. 
I'd love to change the world, but they won't let me.

Glad you found it helpful. I am really still amazed at how nice that book is.
Very clear explanations and a lot of fun to read.
