its cool, you're on holidays ! Oh gosh, I hope not. That would mean I missed another one. Right on phoenixx hey RB - we've missed you indeed. yep, phoenixx got it. but not the final answer...

IDIOT

oh man, really good again. mine's more synonomous then associative for this one. hey phoenixx - not that for the first one above but of course the other two are still correct. also, there will be one more answer derived from these three so they really do not form a "phrase" themselves (want to make doubly sure now I'm on the up and up). so finally, my apologies again for missing your answer before.

Bang on, indeed. and thanks for the vote of confidence. ahh, nothing better than conformation from a fellow riddle goer. not it t_mo, think this one is being a little over thought. PS. I thought house was it too... oh %*$#&, I just checked and you're right. I must have misinturpretted phoenixx's response. think I may need to temper my vacation habits.

you're not very lost, I am. my oh my, this one's a real cluster**** on my part. am thinking I switched words halfway thru. am on vacation and enjoying myself a little too much. so very very sorry for wasting your time. Cherry Lane, will you take the next word? or anyone else? Someone please let me know of an appropriate fine. Yikes!

hey there jlynn and welcome to the Den - this one is more of a word puzzle with multiple answers along the way as opposed to a true riddle with a single answer. am thinking it will be wrapped up here fairly soon. hope you check back and continue to join in. hey t_mo - definitely get where that one comes from. good stuff but not what you'll need for the final answer another clever one but again not the one you'll need for the finale. hey Wilson - neither my friend.

Wont count elite but that score is correct. thinking it will be pretty quick now so wont score the others posted after my foul up. sorry all!

nope, not the match. hey dD - not either but in a long winded explanation to Wilson, did admit that my first edition used one of those. didnt realize until it was too late that my new direction did not preclude the first.

ugh - sorry t_mo, am looking for different answers to the first and second set of three with the second set not associated with golf. am only familiar with the MarioKart but dont doubt the arguments you mention for the others. please give it another go.

hey all - sorry for the delay. will be back soon then as long as can keep the peepers peeping EDIT: missed Glyce's

not at all, gotta love Woody - nice pick-up

ooh cool, okay, go _ _ _ _ _

ah, clever mb. still not it though. the second one above is definitely a match. your interpretaion of slack is also clever and certainly the kind of thing I've done with these just not the intended answer - this time. alas, no. Wilson beat you to this one. sorry, not what I have in mind, mojobrain. and sorry for the headspinning - kinda Because am thinking that ?? okay, your answer to the forth one is correct (see update below for a very slight variation) The ladybird clue was what started this whole concept. At one point I had your answer for this second round group of three playing around with green, club, iron, wedge as the potential other clues. In the end went a different direction only to realize afterwards your answer still fit perfectly; maybe even better. So, long story longer than need be, your second round answer is not what I'm now after.

Hope you are enjoying the holiday PG. awrite Wilson - your entrant into round two is correct. nicely done. am a little worried about that first one and what I thought was a more commonly known 710. without that understanding, dont think the other two will get it. maybe knowing how to say 710 will help. And yes, am truly enjoying the holiday. Maybe too much so tonight. Hope the kids can see fit to cut the old man some slack tomorrow. Thanks hey t_mo - not those but will say that breaking up the lady finger and specifically working off of a lady first is a good direction how do MK - Wilson beat you to this one but I was toying with using your answer in making this clue.
