nice one, had to say it a few times to get it.

Dang... 102nd. I kept thinking that the script "L" at the beginning stood for "pound".

Like I needed another reason to not watch American Idol.

salt on first part? does positioning matter?

[4] Just read left to right, top to bottom.

I let the colors distract me.

Nice puzzle :)

Thanks [5] that did it for me. And [6] is some good salt too.

LOL - for whatever reason, I thought the newstar 3000 was a tractor! I think I didn't look closely and the -ator I was using "trac". That ain't even close!

Once I got past that, [3] made it obvious

You solved this puzzle in 4 seconds and get 10 points for agreeing with [3], for not liking American Idol, either!

(But the puzzle was fun and well clued!)

You solved this puzzle in 2 minutes and 22 seconds and were the 395th Tanga member to solve it.

Over-thought the top part and kept adding "nation" for the last image! LOL!

Still, yay me!

i must be over thinking it... any additional salt would be appreciated!

the map was a little tricky, but I liked the puzzle...wonder if this person ever thought of their name that way...

Same here. Kept thinking it was "nation" till the end !!!

Spelling got me. I never noticed all those "E"s before.

wow, so i was so confused by the american idol reference. i have not watched the newer seasons. so i googled it anyway and she's leaving the show. so i guessed i never missed anything:)

Idol reference helped. The missing states did not.

[3] Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

I was thrown off by the positioning of the three letters. Good puzzle. A little confusing to this simple man.

Immediately knew what it was but could not get the spelling right. :(

Great puzzle.
