PRINTOUT PUZZLE: [ ACROSTIC #1]
SOLUTION: [ SOLUTION]
PROGRAM: [Adobe Acrobat]
PROGRAM: [Java]
I rarely make Acrostics, but in the odd times I've done them I find they're such fun word exercises. While making them, I marvel at the crazy long phrase after crazy long phrase that seem to come out of the alphabet soup that is the target phrase. And look at me, I'm not a big anagram guy! But here it is, anagramania for 23 slots until I've used all the quote's letters. Good times. Hope you enjoy the change of pace.
But enough about me, back to Shenk. In the odd chance you aren't aware of his puzzle company Puzzability, you should get acquainted immediately. They update their site weekly with nifty brainteasers, and oh, if you've got an iPad, you might like their app. Puzzability member Amy Goldstein described it as "a mashup of Rubik's Cube, Jeopardy!, and our own Common Knowledge." It's, predictably, amazing. Not so sure this video is the best way to market it, but hey ... it's not like I have a commercial (yet).
Back to me: bonus themeless 21x still available after you go here and drop $10. For those unconvinced, read about it here. A ton of BEQ.com fans have gotten their copy, what's your excuse?
