I have removed a pair of double letters from each word below. The catch is that I have removed a DIFFERENT letter from each one. Can you replace the 15 pairs?
-1. PU--LES -2. A--ESTING -3. DI--IDENT -4. SU--ERTIME -5. SU--EN -6. SNU--ED -7. FLI--ERS -8. GAZE--ES -9. BO--OW -10. DRI--LING -11. CA--ILY -12. STA--ERING -13. BA--LEMENT -14. A--ESSED -15. STRA--LER
Letters used: B, C, D, F, G, L, M, N, P, R, S, T, V, W, Z
The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.

Bob As I've grown older, I've found that my memory is not as good as I used to think it was.
