Word-Whiz

A stick is put at the center of the table. Three cards, with a consonant on each, are showed. The player finding a word with all these three consonants (in any order and of course together with other letters) catches the stick and says the word. He scores the vowels in the word. If he says a wrong word, or one that has already been said, or if he catches the stick and stays mute, he loses a vowel. The first scoring a certain amount of each vowel (a few less U's than the others...) wins the game.
