My Greatest Scrabble Moment

I love Scrabble. I don't play it much, unless my grandmother's around, but a good game of Scrabble is a blast.

My all-time Scrabble highlight was using all seven letters in two consecutive words (I remember spatulas was one of them). Unfortunately, I was playing my wife and my ensuing boasting caused some marital strife. She has forgiven me since (and I only bring up my stunning victory on rare occasions).

Did you know that it is theoretically possible to score 1,830 points in one turn? This page on fun-with-words.com shows how. I don't expect I'll ever come across the opportunity.
