working JAVA Hangman

This isn't complete. I still have to add the text file with all the different phrases for it to use.  But it is a working program.
A lot of the problems I had with it were because I would skip over parts of the lesson that were redundant, or would be changed later,  and then my code would end up in the wrong places, so I had to go back through the lesson and fix all the locations.


Error 1:  if you enter more then 1 letter, it adds both to the 'wrong letters'
Error 2: typing more then one correct letter will fill them in.
Fixed Errors with :
    found = true;
    index = -1;


I'm going to keep trying to mess with it to find all the problems. Will add anymore I find.
Fixes will be highlighted.
