But my DNF was taken due to the NIALL/ELENORE/IMITATING/LEGMEN/NOM/SEN crosses. I tried NOd, IMITATIon (which seemed more of a skill than IMITATING) and really didn't have any good guesses for SEN Booker, who's been on the Howard Stern Show, so I even know of him and should have gotten that. But would it have helped with LEGMEN? I don't think so. But I agree with Frannie that there's lots of great stuff in here, so I don't mind it too much. There's just a bit too much on the obscure side for my solving skills.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
