  1. What, do I have to HIT you over the head with a CLUB?
  2. Really like benjer3 and Wilson's responses for 3. They certainly fit well. Was hoping that "recognize" bit would better specify the answer for this clue. fabpig has my intended for this one. And Wilson's answer for 1. is really clever. Not mine tho am afraid. Starting to think this one may be a bit vague. At least the first line. I think I've seperated each different approach to the answers within the individual clues with commas. Had a comma after "manner" in this first one but could go either way I think. Am still liking clue 5. and think it's fair. Need to find a different key word to concentrate on and maybe the rest will follow.
  3. I haven't got a CLUE, might as well PUNT.

    SIMPLE get better WbB. hope you're over your illness, as well.
  5. get where you're coming from on the first one above but not quite where i am. the second one is not it but right there. the third, well, though it may be my answer on occasion, not this time. If correct, the last three may be easier to solve. real sensical but strictly coincidental here.

    HOMOS - if 3 then H_M_S as the two Os are eliminated from BORON - 0. realize that this word can be disparaging outside of the latin meaning. in fact that definition - members of the genus Homo - is pretty much a part of the English lexicon. anyway, no intention to offend.
  7. happy belated birthday, araver. and welcome to your third decade.

  8. Not only could it be but meant to be. Another nice solve Dej Mar.

    haven't given this much thought...yet. suspect there may be a differnce if the two "heavies" weigh the same or not. might I suggest starting another topic for this thread. almost missed it as i had already seen the original. looks interesting.
  10. ahh, clever. guess you know i'm not above sneaking in a homophone now and again. not this time, tho. this one's a little more cryptic; a form you are familiar with I suspect, due to one of your previous responses to One, Two, Red, Blue. (gotta finish that one btw)
  11. The SLUG contradicted what that FINK had declared.
  12. yes, KlueMaster, do mean that (singularly) for the second couplet. and Dej Mar, three for three and spot on with the explanations.
  13. Again there are seven, one word answers to name Then a final one as always, never found quite the same As a point of order you stand just above Schooled in a manner more superior guv A judgement call when temperatures rise Down to the minute, intelligent's prize In this situation, you might recognize me Put it another way, here's where it'll be Even on the surface, it may seem to bedevil Yet you know that this story is on the level With beans and cheese 'twas previously served And in theory that matter hasn't gone unobserved A determined quality, to replace in kind Any form of schooling, if I be so inclined Something one's father knows, can nary be beat Nothing's better than that, even if in defeat There's two ways to discover that which you need know Thence just a short while 'fore the final answer is so fwiw - some similar ones from before http://brainden.com/forum/index.php?/topic/9526-sword-play/page__view__findpost__p__185662, http://brainden.com/forum/index.php?/topic/10888-same-old-same-old/page__view__findpost__p__214872.
