Alphabet Game
Click Here to be tortured
Actually, it is pretty fun. Between my wife and I, with a little help from Swaggs and Chief Rum online last night, we were able to get all 26. This is version 3, and they don't give the answers out. Versions 2 and 1 can be done too, but if you get stuck on those you can look up the answers. Have fun! Let me know if you need a hint.

Damn. That's too hard. I can get about 20 on each edition, but that's about it.

The C should be pretty obvious. I didn't get the F either, though it looked really familiar...

Hint on O: Bathroom product normally

D was hard. I was going nuts trying to get them with the wife, and I just flipped open her Vogue magazine, and there it was! That was one of the last 6 that I had a lot of trouble with.

I've got nothing for o. Even the "bathroom product" hint doesn't help. I've shown this to six co-workers, and we are completely stumped.

F, H, W & Y are the ones giving me trouble (though I don't think I would have gotten O without the spoiler).

Ah, just post the frickin' key, but put *SPOILER* around it real big or something. Since you've already posted some answers, it couldn't hurt much at this point....
