...should have anticipated that's be your reply, Luke,, the Cool Hand. !

I'm going to make up a one-time rule now, that "QU" is a single letter:

COOLLY

add QU

COLLOQUY

COLLOQUY

If I could have a conversation with you, I'd state my wish that you had gone from COOLLY to another similar word, that'd have given us more immediate options, and I'd assure you that I wasn't speaking

COLDLY ..as I am hard-pressed to see a way out of COLLOQUY, as nice a word as it is. Had you done so, we might have traveled on (and maybe with?) a DOLLY, or gone where none has gone before ...

If the QU can be added as one letter, I am assuming it
can be replaced in the same manner.
Wising I was a Cool Hand.

I think you can courageously eat 50 eggs, Luke ..therefore, you're a Cool Hand ...and you can prove it by replacing 'QU' with one letter

..'cuz I sure can't ..and with COLLOQUY, what we have here..ironically.. is a failure to comm'un'cate

I've exhausted myself with colloquy, and there are not many times
this happens here. Good luck to whomever.

I am opposed to on this site.
