Newspaper Jumble

| | Comments (2)

Today I was having trouble with a newspaper jumble that I saw: HOBAR.

I was frustrated because it was only 5 letters. My coworker said she could only do them by writing them down in several configurations. I said I can do them best when I put the letters in alphabetical order. So I wrote the letters in alphabetical order and then lightning struck.

All I can think of is FINIS. It seems French to me, but you never know...

Okay, I just checked it in the Scrabble dictionary and it is good. So is FINISES. It means "the end".

...and I just checked my anagrammer and that's all it came up with.
