Putting Rudolph in His Pen
Add letters to a 4 by 4 grid (at most one letter in each cell) so that the
phrase "Rudolph the red nosed reindeer" can be read out by stepping from
cell to cell. Each step must be to an adjacent cell (up, down, left, right,
or diagonally)--like Boggle except that a cell can be visited more than
once. This would be fairly easy, except for Rudolph's red nose. The nose
fills the cell in the second row and second column, as shown by the asterisk
in the following diagram. A letter cannot be placed in the cell with the
nose.
