    A couple of hints...if you want them | Comment 3 of 6 |

    Bob's answer for word 3 is wrong.  His answer for word 6 is close but needs to be the noun.

    If I had asked the question the other way round....i.e.  Find 6 words that have the property xxxxxxxxxxxxx, the programmers would have come up with the solution, particularly Penny.
