What are Danagrams?

Danagrams are little word puzzles that I came up at work one day when I was bored. The basic premise is that there are three clues.

Example Danagram:

1. Tuna Coffin
2. Candy Crutch
3. Weight Lifter

Each clue corresponds to a word. To get from the answer to the first clue to the second clue, you need to add one letter. To get from the answer to the second clue to the third clue, add another letter.

Example Solution:

1. Can
2. Cane (Added an "e" to "can")
3. Crane (Added an "r" to "cane")
