And to help keep a garden FERTILE, one could add:
PERLITE
...to the soil.

The artist took a short break from painting and left his ATELIER to visit the LATRINE.

You are of course right, Trav and I have revised my above post accordingly.
But the current word is still LATRINE.

NASTIER

If BoBo continues to be a nasty STAINER, then I suppose we'll have to RETRAIN him.

Picking someone other than Mark as BoBo's TRAINER is a no-BRAINER.

You guys are just so clever.
So Terty thinks I'm not able to take care of Bobo; anyone can do it, it's a no-BRAINER.
I'm a fine trainer. I simply told Bobo if he didn't stop whizzing on everything, I was going to ship him to:
Behrain
Ook!

When training incorrigable monkeys in BAHRAIN (or a Pakistani hill station by any other name such as BEHRAIN), it's a good idea to wear a HAIRNET.

Acceptible alternate spellings (such as Bahrain and Behrain) PERTAIN to both monkeys and humans.
But only humans are allowed to eat oven-hot, sweet PRALINE pie ala' mode on Thanksgiving Day.

LARPING is popular with adventure game aficionados who enjoy getting out of the house occasionally and PLAYING with other live people.

Wonderfully difficult game, Schizm. By now, most Adventure Gamers have FINALLY experienced the FLAYING that Schizm gave them.

The raw sting of FLAYING usually occurs upon FAILING to solve a tough puzzle.
