Ya, ya, show off. Anybody can get it in 3 if they really try. 😉
Try doing what I did and get all the letters correct but not one in the right location. Can't do it, can ya?
Ha!
Well I didn't think I could either. It's like how I push buttons. All the right ones just in the wrong order. No wonder it took until I was 50 something to get married. By that age they just give up trying to fix you and accept the inevitable.


Uh...excuse me, back to Wordle

Cal,

i started down the mental exercise to figure out what you put to get all the right letters in all the wrong places but ran out of time before I had to start work. I still may try to do it….

Hi MJ, Yes there are numerous sites that show you the word history but I couldn't find a way to find my history. If I click on the history URL from yesterday, it takes me to today's word.

 

[Cal Weldon]

I know what Oreo guessed for his 3rd word. I almost did too.

Thank you Mark. I appreciate you throwing one for me.

Too many possibilities with the letters from the first 2 lines.
Had to use up some more letters in the third guess. Worked out ok.
