Shiritori is a japanise word game, where each word must begin with the last letter of the previous word. Proper nouns are allowed only if it is a well known place/person. (e.g. London, or Obama would be allowed as you would expect most people to know of them.) in order to make it more challenging and therefore fun, i am adding my own modification of the theme rule, where the word must have something to do with the previous word (e.g. President could lead to democracy could lead to You) the same word cannot be used twice. And if you can't think of a word, don't post. But to keep the game going, if there has been no post in the last 2 days the same theme rule is temporarilly dropped (no point in having a game noone can play, and sometimes it could just be impossible to go (but probably not, a the same "theme" is quite a loose requirement).
Also, just out of interest, try and put the connection between the to words. (you don't have to, i just think it may be interesting.)
I will begin the game with: Washington

Eloquent
(describes somebody who might use such a word)

Since there are two posts witch are valid awnsers i will be really clever and do two words that share a comn theme while being valid responses to your words
For eloquent i give the word: tinder
Because it's an eloquent way of saying shit you start fires with
For ethanol i give the word: lighter
Because you could theoretically use ethanol as lighter fuel
They of corse both end in r and follow the theme of fire, so i'm sure it wouldn't be too hard for a respons t lnk them back nto one word :p

(No, I mean... wait, didn't you read the instructions? They have to have a logical connection too. E.g. "President could lead to democracy could lead to You".)
