Well I ought to be shit-hot at that as of this lunchtime. The postman brought me my "Words to Rhyme With" all the way from Texas. It's a huge hardback and I've only dipped in but am horrified to discover that there are no words in it so far as I can see, just phonetic approximations. I've been sitting here biting my lip going duh-dah-dinge and being worse at working out what's on the page that I ever was with actual reading. There's words at the dictionary level but when it comes to the rhyming list they're all in a sort of dooh-dah order. No wonder it was discarded from Kendallville library!

I expect I shall get used to it. It was hardly an expensive experiment. It only cost me a dollar 26 and considering the vast weight of the thing the shipping was peanuts.

But I still don't think hasbeen rhymes with Bedouin, Mr E.

Ann, surely you must have known that they don't have words in Texas, just phonetic approximations.
