I wonder if W is a vowel in the Welsh WoF. (e.g., cwm.)

I don't believe there's been a Welsh-language WOF, but if there were, it would be.

Hasn't there also been recent talk as well that if Sony needs more time for sponsored wedges, rounds &/or puzzles, they were going to switch to the 13-lettter Hawaiian alphabet in order to speed up the rounds???

Is it true that Freemantle is seriously considering a jingle to sell their underwear? I hope it's not "With a thong in my heart".

Back in 1981, a few months before Woolery left Wheel (obligatory use of overused online game show fandom cliche!), there was an episode when Wheel of Fortune did run out of vowels.  Fortunately, Blockbusters was taping a few studios away.  Chuck and Susan went to the Blockbusters studio to snag some excess letters.  Those were some of the biggest vowel movements I've ever seen.

Hahaha, this whole post is funny, but good play on words, made me laugh out loud.

You know when Pat's starting to show his age when you can start to see the vowels on his face.

If they print it in the online Onion, it must be true!

I'm still waiting for the loophole to be closed on the "Buy A Vowel" rule.  That's right... the contestant should really only be getting a vowel, i.e. one "E" not all of them.  

The whole thing is runaway inflation until the Final Spin since "vowels are worth nothing"... what a farce...

And, considering a couple days ago, someone posted it to Wikipedia, it must be doubletrue!

Or better yet, the "Decabet" from SNL...a boon for those who though "LMNO" was one letter already.
