      the Spelling Bee's list of words is unfortunately not a list of all real words, hence why it is says "Not in word list." For example anole, a very real type of lizard, is not a valid guess (much to my chagrin)

    I kept thinking Hank's James Web Space Telescope shirt was a NYT Spelling Bee shirt. Haha!

    The instant replay was so good! I have never got the pangram on spelling bee so YOINK I'll be using that suffix tip for sure.

      If you want to get better at it, there's an app I really like called The Daily Puzzle (the icon is like a mini newspaper with the headline "Daily Puzzle") that has an assortment of these sorts of games every day. Some of them are super easy (the wordsearch - yawn) but there's one exactly like Spelling Bee and one that's similar but you're filling in a Scrabble type grid thing using the letters - it's really helped me to learn how Spelling Bee type games work and get better at making words out of an assortment of letters. Your mileage may vary but it's free and takes like 15 minutes a day if you do all the puzzles.

    "I got a text from MY dad". Is there something you want to tell us Hank?
    I can't do wordle. It stresses me out too much, but I do love connections.
