1. Rows (of houses) & Rows (with his wife)
2. Sequoia
3. Rhythms

Interestingly "typewriter" is the joint-longest word that can be typed using only the top row of a qwerty keyboard.

Edited 'cos I can't spell "qwerty"

rhythm and syzygy - something to do with orbits and the sun, but I can't remember what. I just like the sound Say it loud like you're pissed and shouting at pigeons.
