On 3/3/2010 at 9:29 PM, chicory said: Reveal hidden contents a vcr tape? It "shows" hey chic - your answer does indeed make some sense of the last line and much of the rest but there's still some chicanery there (not a hint just still thinking about Ringer's) and elsewhere yet to be parsed. EDIT: fixed spelling error 'cause I'm just wired that way. Edited March 3, 2010 by plainglazed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend checking her's out. Decided to go with the other answer and intentionally leave in some the clues to yours (like the place and show but took out the win). Almost like plasmid's "I'm not a" types. Definitely check his out, too.
