We'll jetison the "E" and add an "L" for a flip to
NIRPL
It's the acronym for Navy Industrial Readiness Planning List.
And we did decide last week that acronyms are ok, didn't we???

well, I feel like I am wasting this great word, since I cannot overtake the Syph, but it will be fun to be the first to use the letter Q. (hard to believe after all these games, not once has Q been used.) anyways,

R becomes Q, and double the points for :

QAID

Ok, let's take that "D" to the head of the class, swap the "I" for an "S" and make
DAQS
Acronym used in the US Army for Data Analysis Query System.
(Given all the army acronyms that have become daily language, I'm pretty comfortable with these!!! Use your RADAR to see who's AWOL and what's SNAFU, so we can get AOK ASAP!)

DAQS - "Q" + "H" = SHAD
