The mental gymnastics are interesting. No puns or POW type clues in this puzzle. These seem to have many equally good answers without opening that can of worms Edited May 21, 2010 by hugemonkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted May 22, 2010 Report Share Posted May 22, 2010 act = bed??? Even roll is kind of a stretch for funny... I was thinking the same thing at first but then some of the previous answers had splits. So it's actually be/droll where act = be and funny = droll. Clever. Came in late for this word puzzle and can't wait for the next one. Got nothing yet for this last combination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
