  1. Nope, both are one word as is the connection.
  2. Yikes, sorry to mislead but the two words are the same throughout the limerick. Not even I would do to you what you were working. Very creative reasoning with what you had tho. Would suggest not reading into this one too much. Finding the two words was meant to be simple with the connection the main subject I'm after.
  3. Not what I had in mind. Thanks for another good guess and please keep a goin'.
  4. Your apologies, what about the wrath I'm due? I may have to play the blond card myself. Anyway, your guess is not right. This one "works" as a straightforward what-am-I riddle with one answer.
  5. Oh darn, this fits very well too but not it. Was afraid of this. There really is one answer that will fit the best.
  6. I can see why as fits in a lot of ways but not what I had in mind.
  7. OMG, my machine has been hacked, or at least my brain. Spot on Wilson! I still think that one's the hardest. You da man.
  8. In every single line of the riddle below Are two conclusions to reach Like Dancer's; two meanings each Now you've found them both but still to do Make the connection between the two: She's not yet arrived as expected A flower not fully detected Plucked from her bed Intentions misled This development must be thoroughly inspected
  9. It's so hard for anyone to face No one likes you regardless the place Your timing's never right Can't make up for your sight So deny me all confidence and grace In a pinch you may want to assay The waters to which can dismay 'Tis backward must sound But less they'll come 'round If you ignore them instead everyday
  10. Sorry Wilson, not it. And have to say I think this one is the hardest. But it always seems my judgement regarding difficulty is way off.
  11. With help from chicory. Just some thoughts? Good ones all. Would say your nano seconds rationale could be better but accept the rest. My logic behind tiny leftward is a little different which may help you with another clue I had likened to this one in a previous post.
  12. It's been so long I nearly forgot where I was coming from with this one. You're gonna like it when you get it finished. I just did all over again. small male is correct as is another part which is key to this solution. Well done! Oops, didnt say which part but you'll have it shortly I'm sure. Also, good male when discovered, I guarantee, will be the definitive answer for that clue.
  13. Wow, once again am surprised with the part you got. I figured it to be the harder. Your meaning of reflection is correct as is the first three letters of the answer. One of your methods of reasoning for short pathway is correct, you just need a "different one".
  14. So close, should probably accept. Will do if this one goes much any further which I doubt after this post. Your first three explanations are dead on. For the last, both remaining words look like directors but only one is....
  15. Right on. Good word Deanna and Huge. Sorry have been out of pocket. Actually on the road these last seven hours. Will try to catch up here real quick like.
  16. Again, this is probably all wrong, but I really am giving it my very best. Please don't think I'm stupid or anything, I just overanalyze things to death, and try as I might, these puzzles just don't make ant sense to me. It' also funny that you said I got the most obscure answer, while the others are pretty obvious. I think that one was super easy, it's the"obvious" ones I'm struggling at. Thanks so much for keeping at it and resurrecting.
  17. Tag your it. Hope your up for some Familiar Fun
  18. FYI this has 8 letters
  19. 3. Never ending TV show casts Eric, originally, in the king's place. (10)
  20. Edit: had a misspelling
  21. These are left by my count: 3. Never ending TV show casts Eric, originally, in the king's place. (10) 6. Blood test marks the end of one D.C. batters return to European or Asian city. (7) 10. The 9-11 ringleader has a network in a busy airport. (7) and most likely still 8. A slow operating system is one of Buffy's demons. (5) Not only is today the longest day of the year, it is also my anniversary so will be taking big risks if I continue checking in. Probably cant help myself but otherwise....
