I liked seeing PENNYSTOCKS in there (I invest in one, but it's because I believe in the company) crossed with PRICEPOINT (very important, speaking as a business buff). Horace must not have liked 43D Baptism, e.g. SACRAMENT, but I didn't mind it too much. I quite enjoyed 4D Ones unlikely to write memoirs? AMNESIACS. Brilliant clue. And those who know me know that I love SUNKCOSTS (112A Unrecoverable investment expenses). We have many of those here at the YBH.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-55327411518130017112013-07-14T17:43:15.981-04:002013-07-14T17:43:15.981-04:00I had fun with this one, but it certainly didn'...I had fun with this one, but it certainly didn't take very long. I had a hard time finding MASSE, having tried GARDE and PASSE first. I very much liked FISCAL and CLIFF being the cross for DOLLARSANDCENTS. And a shout out to PLACEBO for a clever clue.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.com
