    Default Today's Riddle:: When you have nothing to do

    There is a common English word that is nine letters long. Each time
    you remove a letter from it, it still remains an English word - from nine
    letters right down to a single letter. What is the original word, and what
    are the words that it becomes after removing one letter at a time?






    Answer:The base word is Startling - starting - staring - string - sting - sing - sin - in - I
    Androgens Order
    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
