It always amazes me how good words are hidden in threads. Thermometer, for example, is a pretty long word-but I was completely forget about its existence, hanging around in the lower right corner, until the end of my game.
When I first started looking, I thought we were searching for animals you might buy in an animal store, so after getting fish I searched in vain for dogs, cats, hamsters … So after getting pump I joined the dots and found a home for the letter Q.
An aquarium should definitely rank like one of the most neglected objects in Western homes – like the other perhaps to practice bicycles, bought with magnificent plans to create an exotic world filled with beautiful fish, but then abandoned as they all eat each other and you realize that fish are not as beautiful as you first thought.
