Ralphie ★ Posted February 20, 2022 Share #4 Posted February 20, 2022 I can only think of Burgess Meredith. Hmmm, died all the way back in 1997! Weird how he was considered a virtuosic actor with a very long and full acting career but the main thing I remember him for is being The Penguin.

I am having fun thinking of the perfect complementary second word. It is actually more relevant in quordle where I think it pays just to spray the most common letters out early since you have 9 tries so no use racking your brian with sparse letters. I did resort to using the cheap cheating-ass word soare and it is indeed effective! I think RRs ATONE is slightly better than my recent go to STONE because vowels. But LATER is definitely a good go to word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In science, research advanced from the thought experiments of the Socratic Age - when doing a physical experiment was considered cheating - to Archimedes, The Father of Experimental Science who figured out, from the rise and fall of the water level when he sat or rose in a bathtub, how to determine if the king's crown was pure gold and ran naked down the streets of ancient Syracuse, Sicily yelling "Eureka!" (Greek for "I found it!"). I tried to find the context of the Burgess quote, and found it was about FORM in writing novels, a similar approach to Archimedes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
