  2. Soccer_ballCheeseburgersoccer_ref on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:07 PM

    Cute

  3. FileEggGamesX4 on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:08 PM

    as always, zip through and get stuck on the real clue (16)

  4. Rf_avatarTomatoRandiman on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:10 PM

    [3] I'm with you...

    Post and solve (and I got a good chuckle out of it!).

  5. Avatar_profileEggknights23 on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:12 PM

    (3) same here
    post and solve works again
    great puzzle

  6. DadPancakesjayvil on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:12 PM

    Excellent again Jebediehard! Took a minute for the last one. We didn't have any of those in the town where I was born.

  7. Phi3CornPhilana on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:12 PM

    Good puzzle!

  8. FileEggGamesX4 on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:12 PM

  9. Avatar_profileRocketTechmage on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:13 PM

    But he isn't!

  10. 100_1703Raspberrysonjahi on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:15 PM

    Great one! Clue #16 was a stumper but awesome when I got it. [6] hubby loved your salt...

  11. Image001RadishKennyBruin on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:22 PM

    Good one! I especially appreciated #16. I used to swap stories with a man who sailed the sea.

  12. FileApplenkpham on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:24 PM

    is the last clue an action or noun?

  13. UrsamajorSailboatursamajor on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:26 PM

    Very nice!

  14. FileAppleDBMechanic on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:27 PM

    Nice. Reminds me of a dream...

  15. 07310099PepperLakeLivin on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:28 PM

    [12] Not an action, but not just a noun, either.

  16. FileApplenkpham on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:32 PM

    thanks [15]. that actually got me the answer. that is pretty funny. too bad i couldn't get it til now. i solved all the other ones really fast but got 89th cuz i couldn't figure out the last one. oh well.

  17. Sexy_lips2AceCiabelle on Tue Feb 02, 2010 07:58 PM

    I've got 16, no problem, but as a non-golfer, I'm stuck on 6.. Off to google I go... Maybe I'll get lucky..

    EDIT: Found the answer here: http://www.worldgolf.com/wglibrary/reference/dictionary/

  18. Avatar_profileBananaLuce on Tue Feb 02, 2010 08:05 PM

    I learned #8 as having three more letters at the beginning of the word (and not the ones referenced in the final clue). For anyone else stuck on it, chop off the first three letters and try again.

  19. Avatar_profileWatermelonpwatanak on Tue Feb 02, 2010 08:09 PM

    great clue for #16 - much better than the obvius one

  20. WoofPlumjimu on Tue Feb 02, 2010 08:21 PM

    Very fun, Jeb. Thanks

    [12] [15] perhaps it's more accurate to say that last clue not a "common noun".

  21. UntitledPlumalekssorra on Tue Feb 02, 2010 08:49 PM

    Completely lost on 16...

    edit: another post and solve..

  22. Poster-jornadas-20082AppleBayes on Tue Feb 02, 2010 09:49 PM

    #16 is highly related to #14's clue.

  23. FilePumpkinJohnQ118 on Tue Feb 02, 2010 09:55 PM

    [21]..and the Band Begins to Play.. for your P'n-Solve

  24. Avatar_profileGrapesmorbis on Tue Feb 02, 2010 10:59 PM

    [18] Thanks for the salt. I was stuck on that one for hours. Never realized that the thick black bar in #8 was a minus sign...

  25. Egyptian_2Duckieweisspferd on Wed Feb 03, 2010 12:17 AM

    I recognized the uniform in #16 immediatly because I have two boys serving in this branch of the military. That color should be dress blue!

  26. Avatar_profileCarrotmmene on Wed Feb 03, 2010 12:24 PM

    [24] - that is funny, I actually got the answer to #8 using a dictionary and finding the only word that fit, but I had no idea of how it related to the clue. Now after seeing your comment I understand why it is the right word!
    Still have not got #16 though - If anyone can add any salt to that which has already been liberally sprinkled I would appreciate it. Is it a single word or a phrase/compound word? I can't imagine a word so long.
    Edit:
    Finally got it - thanks to the wheelbarrow full of salt from [25], [28] & [32]. Not to mention one oblique tangagram...
    My brain cells are obviously rusty, I loved that number growing up.

  27. Avatar_profileKiwihippie19 on Wed Feb 03, 2010 12:42 AM

    Wife figured it out just as I did, she just said it first. It's all in the mind you know.

  28. Sexy_lips2AceCiabelle on Wed Feb 03, 2010 01:12 AM

    [26] Two words. A rather peculiar place to call one's home perhaps, but a certain collective does anyway.

  29. Avatar_profileGrapesMickey1821 on Wed Feb 03, 2010 04:42 AM

    well, duh, so easy, yet so hard - very good jeb, need to renew my Games magazine subscription to get the old brain cells firing again!

  30. 8grg3zbpu691mpv38q2nPancakesjebediehard on Wed Feb 03, 2010 04:55 AM

    [18][24] It's ironic that the MINUS sign was not that clear, don't you think.

  31. Avatar_profileGrapespikapp383 on Wed Feb 03, 2010 07:46 AM

    [22] Thanks, that got me over the top.

    [17] As for #6, I play golf and I had to use your link to figure out what they were doing. Maybe that's why I play the way I do.....

  32. Avatar_profileGrapesmorbis on Wed Feb 03, 2010 08:21 AM

    [26] As [28] mentions, #16 is two words.

    If all else fails, let clue #14 guide you...

  33. Przewalskis-horseDuckiecrashbaptiste on Wed Feb 03, 2010 08:05 AM

    [25] Thank you!! The color comment helped so much!

  34. Cubs-logoKiwijthommarson on Wed Feb 03, 2010 08:13 AM

    stumped on #16...the salt doesnt help me apparently.

  35. Cubs-logoKiwijthommarson on Wed Feb 03, 2010 08:18 AM

    got it...wow...should have been obvious

  36. Avatar_profilePotatoDadmeister on Thu Feb 04, 2010 01:42 PM

    A lot of work, and lots of fun. thanks.

  37. FileCarrotleftyleo on Thu Feb 04, 2010 02:44 PM

    when the final hit me - it nearly knocked me off the chair !

  38. Avatar_profileWatermelonSick Mick on Sun Feb 07, 2010 12:49 PM

    Stuck on 8 because I was COMPLETELY IGNORING the right side of the image. D'oh!

  39. FileOnionPatanga on Thu Jan 26, 2012 07:20 AM

    that last one took me way too long.....I was slow to recognize the color....groan.
