    the plural held me up

  2. Nick_dress_blues_2Pancakesbitwisenot on Feb 03, 2012 07:14 PM

    [1] Me too, I'm familiar with the phrase having a singular there.

    The cluing was nice though.

    The spelling is correct for how it is pronounced.

    OMG ...

  7. Soccer_ballCheeseburgersoccer_ref on Feb 03, 2012 07:23 PM

    [5] That's not the plural they're referring to.

  8. Nick_dress_blues_2Pancakesbitwisenot on Feb 03, 2012 07:25 PM

    [7] Though I looked it up, and the puzzle has it correct. I've just been spelling (and pronouncing) it wrong.

  9. Soccer_ballCheeseburgersoccer_ref on Feb 03, 2012 07:26 PM

    [8] Yes, I did the same thing. And I am a product of that program. Still never realized there was an S in there.

  10. FileEggplantPillacd on Feb 03, 2012 07:31 PM

    [7] Ah, I see your point - I jumped to the obvious, potentially incorrect conclusion.

  11. Soccer_ballCheeseburgersoccer_ref on Feb 03, 2012 07:32 PM

    [10] I think the 2nd S is fairly obvious due to the spelling/pronunciation. But that first one....well, I didn't even know it was there myself. LOL

    I am totally lost

    Help

  14. StewieAppleIzzy1968 on Feb 03, 2012 08:27 PM

    The first plural I got with no problem...the second one I didn't expect and had to google
    *hangs head in shame*

    You earned 10 points for solving this.
    I am really starting to LOVE these.
    I don't know if I could say this or not but it makes it so much easier when you are not using the sport being played.

    I too have been saying this incorrectly (without the plural) for the last 40 years!?! Live and learn. Nice puzzle. (I was in the marching band, myself.)

    Crazy puzzles here. I was never much for them and just started getting into them. I got one the other day in 3 seconds, beginners luck of course. Lol, but I can't quite get the hang of these.

    Looks like a sifter or a sieve to me.

  19. AvadoneDuckiebargellos on Feb 04, 2012 12:41 PM

    Perhaps you've been using the item to sift flour, as I was taught to do -- instead of actually using a sifter. If you do a Google Image of sifter, you'll see the object meant for sifting.

  20. Picture-303Pumpkingodard on Feb 04, 2012 12:59 PM

    Knew the abbreviation but never knew what it stood for. Once again, Tanga teaches me something.

  21. Avatar_profileWatermelonpmpnkyl on Feb 06, 2012 03:37 PM

    Last clue sucked. A bit misleading. Nothing like trying to spell it over and over in frustration. Should have probably added a + "letter" at the end.

  22. Avatar_profileOrangeMolinos on Feb 07, 2012 05:21 PM

    [21] Why add a letter that is silent?

  23. A_child_s_discovery_larger_aceo_photoRocketimaqt on Feb 08, 2012 07:38 AM

    Loved this one. Very good.

    Excellent puzzle. Well clued and clever
