    Puzzle w/ answer missing!

    Someone submitted this puzzle to the local senior center: You can make ONE word with all these letters:

    A B S T A L L O F

    He lost the answer, and doesn't remember what the word is.

    Anyone? LOL

    Not to be picky but it's two words, " a softball". I wondered if I should post my observation since I do not have a solution, and I have tried.

    Okay, I jsut did some research and found the anagram solver and entered the letters. The two highest scoring words were softball and fastball but no nine letter words.

    So kudos to Karen and perhaps the puzzle creator/submitter got part of the instructions wrong? Just a guess.
