SCRABBLE: EMERGENCY KITS
The torrential rains, floods, mud slides, tornados, and other meteorlogical phenomenon in southern California this week have given rise to the call for residents to purchase or restock their emergency kits. I for one, sencond the motion. The authorities have created suggested lists of items that they deem to be necessary: water, food, first aid kits, flashlights, batteries, generators, radios and/or cell phones.
Ooops! Didn’t they forget something? A scrabble game, OWL2 or OSPD4, paper or score sheets, pencils, a lantern, and some small tokens for the winners of category prizes.
That got me to thinking, and I created a special emergency kit for scrabble players. (This kit is good at any time; it does not require physical threat or disaster.) It is for those times when the tile gods aren’t treating you just right. The contents are displayed here. A few of the most essential tiles to help you get back into the game; a magic wand with a mace club at the end, just incase the magic spell fails; and a nice soothing glass of dark sherrie. La’ Chaim.
Stay Safe Now.
