Scrabble Afternote
I forgot to mention that I really enjoyed it and plan to return. Plus, one of my favorite friends from the National Puzzlers League was there---name's Jeff, but I know him as Jeffurry---making it actually the first time in the entire time I've lived here that I've actually met a fellow Puzzlers League member in the city. Which isn't as weird as it sounds, because not only are many of us shy retiring people, but I've been holding off on whizzing around the city until I get my 30-day unlimited-rides MetroCard. Until that happens, every time I get on the subway I watch a $2 bill flutter unreclaimably to the heavens.
Ooh! Which reminds me of an easy-but-fun little analogy I came up with on the subway, which I hereby invite you to solve--
bit: $2 bill :: bit : ___ ?
LATER:
Rats. I checked, just to make sure, and it turns out the analogy is bit: dollar :: bit : ___. Which isn't nearly as interesting to me. It sounded so much more fun on the subway.
