Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Whoopee!! Send some our way, please! We're now down to about 12 degrees and clear skies in the forcast for next week or so.
I'm tryin' hon....the snow is just NOT co-operating!
Just shoveled a couple more inches, and it's still snowing.
Supposed to get back down to negative temps tomorrow night...I feel a roaring fire and some hot chocolate in my near future. Cold
On the bright side, I'm not having to deal with the sleet & freezing rain the southern states have right now.

Sounds like it's light weight snow. Might want to wait til four inches fall, then shovel. Otherwise you'll be spending so much energy shoveling several times over than just once or twice. Try those push snow scoops that are about 2-3 feet across. Much easier than actually shoveling, lifting, throwing.

It's fairly light weight snow. Did one big shovel this morning, and the last round was just to get the crud at the end of the driveway that the stupid snow plow piled up.
If I don't get to that stuff periodically, end up with icebergs at the end of the driveway, and it's next to impossible to get out in the morning to take my girls to school.
I have one of the snow scoops....works very nicely.

See if you can figure out what these seven words all have in common?

1. Banana
2. Dresser
3. Grammar
4. Potato
5. Revive
6. Uneven
7. Assess

Are you peeking or have you already given up?
Give it another try....
Look at each word carefully. You'll kick yourself when you discover the answer. This is so cool.....



No, it is not that they all have at least 2 double letters.... Let me know if you found the answer - I didn't!
Answer is below!




































Answer:



In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter, place it at the end of the word, and then spell the word backwards, it will be the same word. Did you figure it out? No? Then send this to more people and stump them as well. Then, you'll feel better too.
