for the words: 'a polo' has 4 holes
for the shirt: (haven't worn a polo in a long time btw) also 4 holes, unless there's a chest pocket, then 5, I don't recall.

measurements aside, the point of the puzzle is to ship it diagonally in the box

It's been a while since this low literary form was en vogue.
Here are my three favs followed by a potpourri of the genre for a blast from the past.
[1] "But you don't deserve an A," said Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ his student.
[2] "Oh, I've dropped my toothpaste," said Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
[3] "OK, I'll send the code again," said Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
-----
[4] "Yeah, I forgot to pay the electric bill again," said Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
[5] "Look! This chicken has no beak!" pronounced Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
[6] "Never, never, never force-feed this a lion," declared Tom, _ _ _ - _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
[7] "I'll have the chicken soup with matzo balls and gefilte fish," said Tom, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ .
[8] "Alright! You can borrow it again, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Tom.
Use the spoiler, Luke.
3)resentfully(1 less character than asked for though)
4)no idea
5)impeccably
6)no idea either
7)judiciously
8)relented
Well, some you lose, Itachi said winsomely

OOHHHH! I totally spaced on what these are, sorry about that.
1) berating
2)crestfallen
I can't find the reefer, Tom said disjointedly
This food tastes like Plutonium, Tom said glowingly

Question: I see that the words are not all the same based on the number of _'s. Do they have to be a specific word though?
-
I feel like the more I stare at this the farther away from the answer I get
the lower case and upper case should give this away right?
-
I think people are missing the stacking idea i posted. You get 16 that way.

Sorry, I wasn't around to response... well here is the solution!
itachi_san already covered it, the cleaning men said they cleaned the corners of the KINGDOM, when they were supposed to clean the CASTLE. So,they did it. However there are more logical solutions.
w00t! I knew a group of cleaners cleaning a whole KINGDOM sounded fishy...

The mailman because he's the only other person in the riddle! No just kidding, it's gotta be the newspaper guy, but he must not have been too bright.

Was there at least a car behind the bus that hit him?
-
I like that 3rd option alot, but I feel like the favorites box would be more useful for topics that are clearly going to die out (new post wise), but contain either some cool information or are just an awesome puzzle that I'd like to have easily at hand.

Oops
Leaving Samoa at 11:30 PM Tuesday I will arive in Fiji on Thursday at 12:30 AM
Leaving Fiji at 11:30 AM Tuesday I will arive in Samoa on Monday at 2:30 PM
You got it redsnuff! Nice! The International Dateline is set between these two island groups so it makes for some confusion.
-
Olive, since the words are written vertically it makes me think the first letters should spell something, so in this case, they would spell CLOCK
-
There are some similar versions of this puzzle on this forum, but none that I could find really replicate it. I figure I'll give this one a try, since I think it's pretty cool.
Fiji and Samoa are two islands in the South Pacific. Fiji is about 970 kilometers (600 miles) west of Samoa. A small airplane can fly this distance in two hours.
When will you arrive in Fiji if you leave Samoa on a small airplane on Tuesday night at 11:30 PM?
And what if you went from Fiji to Samoa leaving at 11:30 AM on a Tuesday?

Though not high-priority, I agree. I think it would be sweet if there was a box below 'recently read topics' in My Controls that was for 'my favorites' (similar to YouTube). And when you are reading a topic, there is in the lower section that has reply, edit, etc.. a box 'mark as favorite' and it would then appear in the 'my favorites' box in My Controls. Just an idea.

A cigar has been obtained ....
but now you need a match !!!!!!!!!!
376006! - u sure used a lot of hinting exclamation points!

Stack the pieces after each cut (assuming they don't crumble apart) you get 16 pieces.

The only way to stay above the water surface is to levitate so the man is clearly a Buddhist Monk or Pai Mei from Kill Bill
-
Please forgive me if I'm being blind and it's right in front of me. But is there a way to select topics as favorites and then view a personal favorites page? If not, then I think that would be a sweet idea. If so, can you please guide me to the function? Thanks.

If the guy in the picture still has no idea what's going on then he's probably still drunk (public intoxication) since he walked over (he could even have driven over)
-
Could you please clarify this?
Suspect 1 is James (the email was sent to him, assuming James is a guy's name)
"I took one look at the picture and I just knew it was a camera phone that took it." she was still shaking as she was trying to drink her herbal tea.is suspect 2? an unknown girl?
and suspect 3 is of course, suspect 3
the guy in picture should be charged with public drunkenness

This could be made into a smaller group then: Grandfather (a father and a son) and his son (also a father whose kid isn't present). So 2 people (who make 2 fathers and 2 sons) caught 3 fish. They caught a total of 3 fish and neither caught the same fish.

Why was the girlfriend killed to begin with?
She had an annoying laugh
-
you cannot deny the friend a ride, but he can apparently wait for a ride since there's no immediacy pertaining to him in the question. So he waits with the fiancee while you drive the old woman to the hospital

Wow buddy, you must have had a bad year or something... Clearly you're not familiar with the literary devices commonly used in almost all riddles. Just go with it. If the question was 'A dollar bill was laying face down in the street. What's the last name of the President on the front of it?' It wouldn't be much fun would it?
