Boasting rights

 Tonight Ellen and I played Scrabble. I was getting lots of vowels and one point tiles - as usual - and Ellen was way ahead, but late in the game I got lucky. I got a “Q” and an “X” and was able to take full advantage of both. I played “Queen” with the "Q” on a double-letter square and a double-word score, and followed up with “Quad” on triple word score - so I got 70 points from that one “Q!” Then I played the “X” on a double-letter square with “Ax” in one direction and “Xi” in the other, so I got 36 points from that one tile. I ended up winning 358-308. Good game! Ellen was happy for me!

Sorry, can’t get this to upload right side up!
