To do this, I think of a word and then, taking the last letter of that word, think of a word starting with that letter. Oh, and the new word cannot end in the same letter it starts with. I do this 24 more times to see if I was able to use every single letter in the alphabet. Would be pretty amazing if I did, but some letters are just too obscure. From two minutes ago…
