"I don't think that's a molar", Tom said i---------. -2. “I can’t find my CD player,” said Tom t---------. -3. "This is the one-thousandth Swifty," said Tom g------. -4. "Picture quality is the best on the HD channels," Tom said d-----------. -5. "I like to make things," Tom said c-------. -6. "Let's get married," said Tom d-----------. -7. "I've removed all the leaves in my yard," Tom said r-------. -8. "My voice is deep," Tom said b--------. -9. "That insect of the superfamily Apoidea is in pain," Tom b-------. -10. "Now I can do some painting," said Tom e-----.

Thanks, Bob! That was a great answer, far better than mine! You get an honorary cigar I'll leave mine open for a while yet...

Good call, Cheryl! Gail - nice try but not mine. What is a deep voice known as operatically? Remi - nice try, but doesn't start with that letter...

Life is what happens while you're making other plans.
