Re:Solving: Wordscapes with Python

My wife got my hook on the game wordscapes on our iPhones.
I will continue to play without this program, but, I figured it would be really easy to 'beat' the game with a quick python program.
The key is two python libraries: PyEnchant (relies on the Enchant C library) and 'itertools' from the Python standard library.

I got taught the various levels of FU (f*ck you) money...
Here are the responses available, when dealing with a pain in the ass at work:
Level 1) FU, I don't have to work here.. but I should probably find a job in the sometime near future.. like.. the next year

Level 3) FU, I don't have to work here.. or anywhere... I'm going to my yacht.
I got level 1 ;)
