Just Gumm, doin' the casual thing. This is what I started shortly after PyWeek, cuz I couldn't find my license key to unlock my favorite commercial word game.

Oh and Warning - Warning - Warning - Bad Word Warning:

The word lists distributed with Vocab Extreme are from the Moby/Gutenberg collection. They contain words which may be considered inappropriate or objectionable by some.
