Sounds to me like you live by the sword.  Just remember...

All I see is "The Pen is Mightier" as a category in the sketch, what is it about it that I have to understand?

[/quote]I'm not going to spoonfeed you the humor, so forget it.  If you've watched "Celebrity Jeopardy!" on SNL, it would be hilarious, trust me.

[/quote]Yeah, but Chris actually contributes to threads, and he gets jokes.  You're sitting at 0-for-2.

"Rockets" lends itself to judgment calls.  The Space Shuttle is not a rocket, it is carried by a rocket.  The Saturn V, et al, are rockets.  And how many of those are well known.

OK, I need to stick my head in a bucket of ice water, I'm reading this far into a 'musicman' post...see you all in a bit.

Time out...that's a LINE OF THE YESTERDAY.

To everyone participating in the musicman fiasco (yeah, that includes me too):

Stop.  Please, just stop.  Now.

To musicman: you have displayed a nearly complete inability to understand anything you're told.  People have tried to explain things to you, some politely and some admittedly less so.  And yet, you don't realize that every time you open your mouth, you place your foot squarely in it.  You still don't get it and you never will, so please stop trying, at least via public posts.

To everyone else: we have tried to explain things to musicman.  Some of us have tried insulting him.  Not unlike Adam Kleist, he still doesn't get it and he's never going to get it.  One more "hey musicman you're an idiot" post isn't going to change that.

I don't want to close this thread because I agree with whoserman and others that the topic is a fine one.  Musicman's cluelessness aside, some of the ideas have been good, some less so.  I don't want to stop people from tossing ideas around -- but please, please, PLEASE ignore musicman as long as he chooses to remain ignorant of, well, just about everything.

Thank you.

Lake Minnewaska (big lake in Pope county)

Illegal, for saying part of the word in it.[/quote]

Based on other '80s rulings, maybe, maybe not. They were known to accept clues (sometimes) where part of the word used was also part of the subject. I'm thinking of "14-across" for THINGS IN A CROSSWORD PUZZLE. I think (I hope) the idea there was that "across" is not really a compound word, and that was what edged it into legal territory.

Anyone got a single, game-winning clue for THINGS THAT ARE PERSONAL?
