This evening, since my daughter-in-law is out of town, my son came over to our house to play some Scrabble. He always liked the game as a child and my spouse and I enjoy it, so it seemed like a good way to pass an evening. My wonder spouse and I play Scrabble quite often and usually end up scoring over three hundred points each and with scores just a few points apart. Therefore we approached the evening with confidence. We even went out for Thai food to help him relax (maybe make him a little sleepy?). Well, here's how the evening actually went. We played two games. He won the first by 60 points over the next highest scorer and the second by 39 points. We figure we were closing the gap. If we could have played five more rounds either my spouse or I might have won. Sadly (or perhaps gladly) all of us are too old to stay up all night. So my son shall remain the victor 'til next time.
