Oops, that title was supposed to say "Spelling Bee". Did you know that I was the William Howard Taft Jr High School 7th grade spelling bee champion? Yeah, true story. So, I love the Bee (as we veterans call it), and it was on TV on Thursday and I caught parts of it while flipping between So You Think You Can Dance and the NBA finals. The arts, academia and bouts of physical prowess - how well rounded am I?
Here are the 10 final words used in the Bee:
lekane
panguingue
Jugendstil
galoubet
naumkeag
hooroosh
orgeat
sorites
periscii
cymotrichous
And that is why I didn't go beyond Taft Jr High spelling bee competition. Mazel tov to the winner!
