THEME: /A/ sound substituted for a normal vowel sound in a phrase
GOOD ONES: title:
BRINGING YOUR "A" GAME Go flat? LIE [as in recline]
It may be gray AREA
Maniacal leader? EGO- [not Putin]
Bangkok bread BAHT [what they spend, not eat]
Quakers in the forest? ASPENS [the trees quake, I guess]
Darling girl WENDY [from
Peter Pan whose last name was Darling, and she was]
Beach shade TAN [not the shade from an umbrella]
It means nothing at all NIL [not the illicit affair]
Turns up at home? AT BATS [the jargon is "turns at the plate"]
Older partner, hopefully WISER [as in the sadly eschewed concept of "older and wiser"]
Hot rod SPIT [at times]
Persian plaint MEW [the cat not the cat (man or dude…)]
BTW: Aversion therapy
HATE DETECTOR [I don't believe there is a "height" detector]
"The View" alum Joy BEHAR [I do believe she has returned]
Emulate the Piper
DERAT [I don't believe this is a word]
Breed of dog? SLY [as in "sly dog," but he isn't bred and doesn't "breed true" as does my standard poodle, who would be stumped by the breeding process I am sure]
SEIS and DONDE are Spanish only.
RATING:
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
