A Cute Puzzle for Word Geeks Like Us

Q:


Think of a synonym of the word prelude.  Think of a synonym of the word presuming.  Your answer should be a pair of homophones that are appropriately tied to the title of this puzzle.

The image refers to Lincoln's Gettysburg address, "Four score...".  A prelude can be a foreword and a presuming person may be forward.  A cute puzzle "for word" geeks like us.

  2. I can't even figure out whether or not Jan can figure out what's going on in the picture. I'm taking 11109500 steps back. (That's the last time I'm fixing that silly number; if it's wrong, I'll just try to explain it later.)

    1. FOREWORD - FORWARD
      12345236 - 1235736 = 11109500

  4. If I "presume", does that make us co-chief-executives? (I will NOT explain this one.)
