Similar to bowling, Bowl-A-Grams is made up of 10 "frames". In each frame you're provided with ten letters. Award yourself a strike (20 points) if you can unscramble a ten letter word. Award yourself a spare (10 points) if you can unscramble two words using all ten letters. However, you can't split your ten letter answer to make the two words. As an example, if your ten letter word worked out to be "forecaster" you can't use "fore" and "caster" as your spare words. A perfect score, as in bowling, is 300 points. You can do this on your own to see if you can get a perfect score or you can post an answer one frame at a time. When posting a frame answer, please provide the ten letter word for the strike and the two spare words. A couple of toughies in there... STILL TO SOLVE:
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
