A big list of words. Big. You've been warned.

Um. Wow.
It's like a dictionary.
But not.

My, what a big list of words.

One word:

WHY?

Someone should defenestrate that nugatory list.

Is pointless on the list?

Did you notice that if you set your font to Verdana 12pt, set your window size so that the 18th line has only 10 words, the diagonal letters starting at the 200th line spell out a secret message that zigs and zags for the rest of the list?

Strangely enough, no. In fact, neither is "gullible."

....the time to get undressed?

Can I just continue the hijacking of this thread by saying that Match Game was one of my three favourite game shows ever? Jeopardy and Press Your Luck were the other two, but Match Game (I only saw the last 2 years of it when I was around 10 years old) was so much fun to play along with at home AND get a laugh from the panelists.

I know they tried to revive it in 1990, but they should really think about giving it another go nowadays. You could easily put together a decent panel: David Hasselhoff, Mr. T., Morgan Fairchild, John Ritter, Wayne Brady and Jane Curtain (off the top of my head). Choosing a host would be a bit more difficult, but even the regular standbys like Chuck Woolery would be good.

Just saying, that's all.
