You got me stumped, Bran. What the heck is threeting?
, error, error . It's not a barrel of trouble; I just made a tiny bit of a mistake. I have never heard favorite pronounced as fivorite, but if it exists then 5orite is fine with me. Sixorite however is really not possible. (just a silly game allright, but what ) tsuwms word threaping (3ping  )is a real decent word: 2. To maintain obstinately against denial or contradiction; also, to contend or argue against (another) with obstinacy; to chide; as, he threaped me down that it was so. [Prov. Eng. & Scot.] --Burns. [1913 Webster]

I finally watched the Victor Borge piece; I've always liked him, and that's a great one! He missed a few opportunities, though.
Okay, I got it now, Bran!

Besides, there are 4 Os in C4H8O4. Are we up to 6 yet? 6ten Sparre, the anit-hero of Elvira Madigan. Or, if you don't like proper names, there's always that regular column in Verbatim, 66ic!
