What about words that need two words to properly place the meaning. New York being the state or city. Just one word loses all the meaning.

...to my own comment. The idea of the game is not to spoon feed the rest us with your ideas, but to get us thinking "How the heck does that word relate to the previous one". Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

In case that connection is lost in time: The actress playing Romana, in the real world, married Tom Baker who at the time was playing Dr Who... I'm sure their real world relationship helped greatly with some of the on-screen episodes for adding unscripted character to the scripts. Enjoy!
