BOZA

[rowand]

BIZE -- a dry cold north wind in southeastern France -- Let's get BIZE!

That was a headfake I menat BORA

[jaeldubyoo]

I'm back. I need to apologize for using BONA. In my haste to go on my errand I used what appears to be a proper noun. Also, BOZA appears to be a "furren" word that CG frowns upon. And BIZE is a two-letter change. Shall we go back to BONY?

[rowand]

PONY ??? As in I want a PONY -- my daughter, daily!

Does this mean it is a proper name? I agree about the tall mountain in the Alaskan-Canadian border though.

I corrected my mis-entry to BORA which was what I wanted to enter. Not Bize!

[fulltimer56]

Yeap, Bona is a proper name since with was being used for:

[rowand]

TINY bubbles in my whine! Makes me crabby, makes me get fined!

[jaeldubyoo]

[Evil Parsnip]

I tend to WINE a lot.

[jaeldubyoo]

wino

[rowand]

LINO I learned this word as a typed-in typo from my early blogging days back when it was known as an APA or Amateur Press Associations. Turns out its really a floor covering.

[Evil Parsnip]

KINO.. since wino.. a very drunken parsnip has been used

[rowand]

KING me!

[marvelguy]

Boza?! Boza a furren word? It's a type of drink so says the dictionary just as much as beer is a furren word from Germany.

Well, let's keep on playing.

[marvelguy]

PING

[rowand]

SING sing this time for sure. Even the local cops could solve a multiple murder with the clues I had left behind. Curse those Jehovah witnesses and their free copies of Watchtower that had cost me any hope of cleaning up my trail.

MALT-o-meal in place of Oatmeal! Anything even vaguely connected to beer is OK by me!

[jaeldubyoo]

salt

[marvelguy]

silt

[Evil Parsnip]

Sirt

[rowand]

DIRT colored roots under a mockery of the human body. One made out in vines and moss and stems and branches. A leaf golem, off pretending to be a man!

[marvelguy]

DIET ....who's still is doing it now that it's Feburary?

[rowand]

DIES are cast! The future was upon us! It was the start of a brave new world for someone.

I am still on my "New Year's Resolution" diet! From 2006. I'm down 63 pounds and only have 98 more to go! Yah! (tough one to cheerlead) RAH RAH Ree move your fat knee; RAH RAH Rass move your fat other knee.

Diet -- It's DIE with a T! -- Garfield, mid-lasagna

REED Richards, MR. Man-Plastic, leader of the Fantastical Four

Super Bowl -- Pfft! -- more like a demo on the evils of Dropsy!

[marvelguy]

READing is fundamental!

[Evil Parsnip]

I used to have a thing for REDD heads

[marvelguy]

Hold it there, the wife here is a redhead!! You'll have to REDO your stance.

[jaeldubyoo]

REPO, let's hope it's not your car or house.

[rowand]

REPP a fancy threaded fabric. Building a good repp must be SO hard.

[jaeldubyoo]

You REAP what you sow.

[rowand]

NEAP tides are the right time to collect shells!

[marvelguy]

Don't get Gizmo NEAR the water at midnight.

[Evil Parsnip]

I shake my NEAF at you in defiance of that reply...

[fulltimer56]

Turn a DEAF ear to it!

BTW I did click on the last page button and it took me to page 57 and this was at around 11:00 today!! What gives, Hoss???

[rowand]

I'm shaking like a LEAF in a high wind! I'd claim to be all shook up too, if I could figure out what type of tree is most like Elvis! Elmis? Chestnut? Any hardwood?

[marvelguy]

Lean

LEAR ovens burn down the true metals and leave the impurities to float in the crucible. Kinda like boot camp.

[jaeldubyoo]

dual

[rowand]

DUAD the perfect name for Duplicate Girl at least until she splits.

I see your problem! I am figuring from my last digs out in Reseda. Out Pear Blossom and hook around to Twin Peaks to the road to Mojave and my Rockhunting areas. Nice rattlesnakes out there, too.

[jaeldubyoo]

Drad

[Evil Parsnip]

[marvelguy]

DRUG

Hawkman liked Whet bread!

[marvelguy]

[Evil Parsnip]

[rowand]

CHAT rooms spread the word on topics of mutual interest.

[fulltimer56]

[fulltimer56]

MOAN

ZOON I am and so is my twin!

[rowand]

RYOT, you are a! You snooze, you loose!

Was there a Riot Squad comic appearance ever?

[marvelguy]

Hey, wait a minute. I thought there no furren words are allowed here, CG says so. Ryot? That's a India word for peasant.

[The Charlton Guy]

RYOT, you are a! You snooze, you loose!

Was there a Riot Squad comic appearance ever?

Way too furren...

ROOT is the current wurd.

BREAKING NEWS THOUGH!!!

As we have broken all records for longevity, banality and incongruancy in this record-breaking Round the Change One Letter Game, I am upping the comic count for the Award to 40 BOOKS!

Good luck!

[marvelguy]

#woohoo#

Marvel Goodness galore!!! Hint,Hint

Marvel Comics gives you MORE!!!

[rowand]

Dictionary.com lists RYOT as a valid word when I checked. If it is not then the RIOT later on in the post should work.

Charlton Guy needed to make a decision here. He is as wise as always.

[rowand]

Well decided CG! We are off with RIOT then!

Riot without testing ryot lead to a win if ryot was valid so I derailed it.

[marvelguy]

How about PIOT?

[The Charlton Guy]

Hmph...nobody ever says "How about Homo Sapien"!!!

[jaeldubyoo]

The end is near.

[marvelguy]

AJOG on the way.

[fulltimer56]

[The Charlton Guy]

Lookin' good Marvelguy!!!

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a240/the-charlton-guy/t01-721010.gif


This does indeed look like a winner, but in fairness to all and according to the Rules of the Game, I will wait for 24 hours and see what kind of valiant attempts are posted before declaring a winner!

As noted yesterday, the Award will be 40 books from The Charlton Guy Collection and $1 in Corral Cash for each post up to the winning post!

Thanks for making this the longest, most agonizing yet most enjoyable Round of The World-Famous Change One Letter Game yet!

And a might-be-premature (you never know) CONGRATULATIONS to MARVELGUY!!!

[marvelguy]

Yes, it is WAY to early to decide now. Until then, the game goes on.

[jaeldubyoo]

The end was nearer than you thought.

Congratulations!

[fulltimer56]

Well, it's 9:30pm cst so I believe that marvelguy is the WINNER!!! It's been more than 24 hours!!

What say you, CG???

Linda

P.S. When does the next game start???? I'm waiting!!!

[The Charlton Guy]

Congratulations Marvelguy!

What ajogingly great ending to the longest winded Change One Letter Game Marathon ever!

Your well-deserved Award in Corral cash will be added to your war chest shortly and I will get off your books post-haste!

As for a new Round of the COLG??

Give me an hour or so....I have to add a few more books to my cockamamey auction and I'll be right back.

Plus, a New Surprise Game coming up tomorrow night! Stay tuned!

[rowand]

It falls on me to be the Coyote, the Loki, the Abzug-Mazda, the Devil's Advocate to these proceedings. I have scoured my dog-eared dictionary in search of further entries to keep the game afloat and aflowing. I must admit a general failure to find any valid entry as of Dictionary.com.

Hence, I'm like Swamp Thing on a retreat, all ABOG over the results of the Marvelguy win. Charlton Guy knows his four letter words from AtoZ whereas the rest of us simply do not know them from AtoB by comparison.

The American Heritage Dictionary does cite a- as a prefix to be used with words like BOG to create a new word that combines the location of the base word with the prefix showing that is is in the middle of the location.
Nothing was said about any creek with or without a paddle!

Nice win Marvelguy! Nice game Charlton Guy! Everyone enjoyed it greatly!

[marvelguy]

Thanks everybody!!! This game has been a blast and a joy to play in. Never in my wildest dream I would win this with great competitors like Rowand, Linda, Jael, Camper, and anyone else playing in it. And I must not forget CG for a great game and prizes to boot. Thanks CG!!

[marvelguy]

Hey CG, where's the prizes at? It's been four months and counting. I'm still waiting with abated breath.

What say you?

[fulltimer56]

If I remember right, I didn't get mine for awhile either!! ;)

Linda

[The Charlton Guy]

Hang on...

Bear with me...

I can explain the wait with four simple words:

"I have five kids!!!!"

Congratulations (AGAIN! )

MARVELGUY Rocks!!!

This was perhaps the longest and hardest fought Round of the World Famous Change One Letter Game ever!!!

And say what? I never sent off my prize from a previous Round?

SO SUE ME!!!!

JUUUUUSSSSSSTTTTT KIDDING!

Marvelguy? Your books will be arriving via Dogsled very shortly....hopefully by December 15th or so...

Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!

A well fought and well played finish to perhaps the most inconsequential and greatly ignored Round of the C.O.L Game ever!

Thanks again to all and hang in there for a new Round!!!!
