	At first I realized that you could go straight from CAST to MAST and skip a few steps, but then I realized you could go from DUST to DUST and skip the whole quiz :)

	I never understood all the hype about the Sahara and the Gobi… they're just deserts.

	The "core" of this word ladder shares three words with the "core" of the word lattice from yesterday

	Hmm. Fun word ladder (as usual) but I'm not so crazy on the idea of starting from one words, going through about a score of words, and then ending up right where you started. Interestingly I didn't get dust at all. I thought of hair and nail for the first one.

	It's a very pedantic point, but it's an urban myth that dust is mainly made of skin - that's just one small part of what makes up house dust. Nonetheless, fun game.

	Did anyone else type "card" for "you will need one of these if you have lots of things to buy at the store"? :)

	You know, when someone gets what they deserve, they don't get just Saharas and just Mojaves, they get just cakes and cookies! (Just deserts to desserts, with two s's in the middle)

	How about "need for the second question?

	renbutler:	Apr 16th, 2011 at 18:07 GMT		7 points
	Yep, believe it or not, the correct phrase is "just deserts." http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/just-deserts.html

	Gross! :)

	I thought this was very clever -- and philosophical, too: dust to dust! Congratulations.

	Yey, this is the first quiz in ages I completed first time :)

	I had the same thought as schmollie - it's not actually true that (house) dust is mostly dead skin; after having that thought, though, I still felt my stomach turn a little through the quiz. That's got to be why the urban myth has persisted! Somehow having little microscopic mites crawling all over me eating my dead skin doesn't seem gross to me, but dead skin collecting in the corners does...

	47 sec left way too much time - enjoyed quiz though
