If I love words, does that make me a nerd?


Am I the only one that thinks it is amazing that I can take the word OWL and turn it into LOW? Or the fact that if I mix my words around enough, I can make the word CHECK-IN from CHICKEN?

Every set of scrambled letters ends up making a mystery word using all of the letters. They are so proud of themselves when they figure it out....and I am left standing with my jaw open at how impressed I am!


So for those of you reading this, here is your challenge for the day:
