Hope and Change

November 6, 2008 at 7:23 pm --by Cindy · 16 Comments

Surely you all remember this rainy day favorite. How many words can you make from Hope and Change? I’ll get started:

GOP (Ok, that’s not really a word, but it’s my blog, so I get to cheat.)
peg
cheap
dope
hang
nope
pea

Your turn. I’m sure some of you will be much more clever…

    Hey, where did I read a comment about a former athlete not wanting to join the other team after defeat (analogy to unity after this election)? I wanted to respond but lost my place & can no longer find that sentiment!

    Number 14 on this link.

    Found the comment as #14 under “The Bush Eulogies”. Responded. Am Happy.

    Now I will play again: nag, hag, henna, canna, canned, penned, $$$$$…

    I can only come up with one: headache

    There is no ‘d’. Thereis only one ‘n’.

  • 11 Tinkerbell // Nov 7, 2008 at 7:40 am

    Randy,
    That was pure genius! You win. :)

    lenf,
    the “d” is the last letter in the middle word, “and”

    the “n” is the penultimate letter in the middle word, “and”

    maybe you’ll want to have another go at it yourself?

    FOR HIM: Dang, He No Peach.
    FOR HER: Cheap Hag, Eh? (Nod.)

    Jeez! I didn’t see that. I wrote ‘hope’ & ‘change’ on a scrap of paper and worked from that.

  • 14 Tinkerbell // Nov 7, 2008 at 11:13 am

    lenf, still a great effort!
    Dontcha love the clever phrases J-Gravelle came up with, too?

  • 15 Cindy Kilkenny // Nov 7, 2008 at 11:45 am

    You will notice I didn’t make a stellar effort. I did find a couple of interesting Web sites where you can enter the word or phrase and it will do it for you.

    Cool.

    Cindy,
    you picked a fun game and inspired us! Now you’ve inspired us again… to go googling for anagram answer websites!
