    Today's one was a bit crap because i didnt even know that was even a word. I got the last 3 letters so made up some interesting words but just not that one.

    I can't imagine I'll be using that word again unless I'm playing scrabble.
     
    I don’t want to give it away for anyone who hasn’t played today. But I thought everyone would know that word because of a major event that happened in our history. Probably a top 10 US event in the last 100 years. In reference to said event is probably the only time I’ve ever heard that word though. Thinking about that is how I came up with the word only knowing 3 letters out of order.

    Ahh, well that makes sense. Rereading it I was trying too hard to not give it away and made it sound like everyone should know it. When I just meant to say I’ve never heard that word used outside of describing that event.

    Took a while to figure out what word I could make with the remaining letters.

    Did my first WORDLE this evening.  Took all 6 bars, 22 1/2 minutes, but got it.  "Phew" indeed!

    Yesterday's word was KNOLL (I can spoil the day after right?) and we only know it from The Grassy Knoll which has to do with JFK's assassination. And also a recent location of a strange event held by a disturbingly large US political cult. I had no idea how "KNOLL" was spelled in that context - you learn something new every day. "A small mound or hill" according to the dictionary, most common in Great Britain and China I saw. The more you know.

    Probably my best start. My best shot at getting it in 2 but couldn’t come up with a word so just went for more letters.

    That’s what I was thinking yesterday. I got it when I had K  O and L out of order and that was the first word that came to find. Had it not been for the JFK assassination I never would have heard that word.

    Dang it! I was going to guess the answer on my second try, but decided to go with a more conventional word and then doubted it again in my 3rd try.

    Yep.  I would have had it in 3 if I went a different way.  I was aggravated when I saw my third attempt was incorrect, lol.
