0 bonanova Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I looked it up. Another definition for bug is a mental impairment. Wow ... I use onelook.com - the closest to your meaning it has is noun: a fault or defect in a system or machine. OK, points for that, but ... still doesn't have the mystery requirement.

Question
bonanova
The first three sets worked from the first word - think, set and bill.
In this set, the second words share a characteristic.
There may be more than one word that satisfies the clues,
but only the word with the desired characteristic will be accepted.
I've stepped up the general clue difficulty, as well.
Have fun!
