The point of the WL thread is to link the previous word with a comprehensible word that pops up to mind, imo

I am getting quite peed off with people posting direct opposites ro what has been posted.

It is called a word "LINK" thread. It is supposed to be synonyms not antonyms.


Er who says, how weird

I think Julie and BladeD both responded to "Jack," technically making "Jill" an invalid link, but I went with it anyway.

The Gunpowder River intersects Amtrak's Northeast Corridor near Chase, Maryland. The interlocking where the railroad reduces from four tracks to two to cross the river was the site of a major crash in 1987, killing 27 people. Conrail engineer Ricky Gates was found to be under the influence of cocaine when he ran three freight locomotives past a stop signal into the path of an Amtrak train going 127 mph.
