But what the heck is the "c" in PBANDc? Coconut? Cranberry? Cream? Caramel? Candy? A fun enough puzzle that WENTBY in 5:29 for me, an OCEAN away from the 3s. If only I GNU more (or could think of things other than in SLOMO).Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-75842851174455963642021-05-24T22:28:01.082-04:002021-05-24T22:28:01.082-04:00I'd say a lash has a more valid claim as a bod...I'd say a lash has a more valid claim as a body part than a joint, because a lash is an actual thing. The other is just a name for where other, real body parts come together. <br /><br />Still, fun theme.Horace Fawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676932991883111336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-85423182421869178732021-05-24T14:26:20.952-04:002021-05-24T14:26:20.952-04:00I bet the constructor put a lot of thought into th...I bet the constructor put a lot of thought into this puzzle, especially the theme entries...the reveal is a stunner.

What about, say, fingernails? Or.. teeth? OK... that's all I've got on the matter. 3:49 today, so not really in the neighbourhood of the 3:00 Monday Holy Grail, for which I think a bunch of stars are gonna have to align..

But on the other hand, it made for a fun theme!Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.com
