    Default How good are you with words?

    (I pulled this off Myspace, but I thought it was pretty neat)

    There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?

    I would have but I knew I would have to think about it... I knew the single letter was either A or I... would have had to just build it from there

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
