the word is GIROLLE

It was a train wreck - couldn't turn away. Fascinating that they delayed Greys Anatomy to finish the showing of a Spelling Bee! My Gawd! If only CNein could learn how to spell - what happy Sports Lovers we'd all be....
I think there should be a rule in spelling comps like that - words from English only... c'mon - german, yiddish, japanese, french.... It's hard enough to remember i before e expect after c (except for the exceptions) than to remember sometimes there's a d at the end of stupid french words!![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

at one point they cut to this little girl and they said:
"shes given up volleyball and soccer to focus on her spelling this year"
and she got her first word wrong
HAHA!

And of course the kid who won the event actually prefers mathematics and music to spelling. The other two he can use his mind to create stuff, the spelling is all just a bit of memorisation. Does he now like the Spelling Bee a little more than he used to, being National Champion and all? Uhm - a little I suppose... ![Wink ;)](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)

We need Rabs to commentate on the Spelling Bee.
