Sep 02, 2009 Hypercross Puzzle

Haha, my fingernails too!

Good puzzle!

My wife is well balanced. She has one of these on both shoulders!
:-)

Very very nice and a great title as well.

Geez, I'm really dense. I have no idea what the words have to do with the title of the puzzle. Maybe it will hit me later.....

Edit.... and it did. Came back to it tonight & it was SO obvious!!!

[4] - I got through about 10 of them until it hit me.

I'm thinking of that scene from "A Fish Called Wanda"...

[2] ouch!

[4] I don't know what the theme is either. Just filled in all the answers.

*edit* I just got it.

haha, figuring out the theme was a lot harder than the actual puzzle. one of those things that just hits you.

[5] Yes, #10 was the a-ha! moment for me as well.

I was doing so well until number #12 and brain seized up but still struggling with the theme too.

[17] viva Mexico or live in SW USA but I still have something wrong on the end of 12 because the others just CAN'T be wrong since the theme finally hit me after being out of town for a week.

Solved .... if I could only spell

[11] I feel your pain! I have 2/3 of #12 and still no theme.

*edit* I just got the clue AND the theme! haha All it took was posting that I couldn't get it!

I'm stuck on number 4.. everything else I sailed through.

*edit* Got it.. same thing... posted I couldn't get it... "talked" my way through it... and BAM!

cool theme aha moment!

[11][12] "... off the old block"

[4][5[8][9][10][11][12] Yeah, I figured out the whole thing before I got the theme, but it wasn't really any one clue that gave away the theme for me.

I can't get 4 either. I figured posting has helped others, so I'm giving it a try

Another one, solved the whole puzzle before getting the theme. Good one!
