Theme: Daffy Duck’s lisps leading to unintended meanings
Good Ones:I like all the theme answers; theses are my favorites:
Ghost from outer space? ALIENWRAITH [alien race]
Texas Hold’em player’s confidence? POKERFAITH [poker face]
Parisian pals? FRENCHKITH [French kiss]
Class without struggle EASYA
They’re often full of hot air FLUES
Does sum work ADDS
By the Way:
Ed Asner septet EMMYS [I thought the 7 letters in his name]
Odd that both GRE and MCAT appear in the same puzzle.
Who knew?:Bart Simpson’s “grampa” is ABE [I know, but for some reason I hate references to that show, of which I never saw a minute. What’s wrong with “Lincoln” or “Fortas”?]
OOLA is a dancer in some Jedi movie. I also hate references to
Star Wars and
Star Trek. But I realize the puzzles are “better” for them since they stretch our knowledge base.
RATING:

Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
