My Dog Has No Nose

Q:

Take the question, “Does a Dalmatian ever sneeze?” Rearrange the letters to name four places on earth that would be described with superlatives (words that end with est).





How about we start with creepiest???????

A:

Amazon - widest river, Nile - longest river, Everest - highest elevation, Dead Sea - lowest elevation

  1. Speaking of places on earth...the initial letters engulf and the ultimate letters explode.

  2. Volume, extension and two altitudes.

  3. Rearrange the initial letters of Amazon, Nile, Everest, and Dead Sea and get ADEN (the gulf). Rearrange the ultimate letters and get ETNA (the volcano). So...two more places on earth!

  4. I got sidetracked when I found "Denali", thinking it might still count. I found it interesting that the initial letters of the 5 words were the 5 letters that appear multiple times (A N E D S).
