Take,for instance, the clue for STYX, which I had as "Mr. Roboto band".<BR/><BR/>It was really great working with him and I hope his editorial reign continues somewhere.<BR/><BR/>Scott AtkinsonScott A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00314586200601370625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6797119770533435005.post-80250081877073497922008-11-17T02:30:00.000-05:002008-11-17T02:30:00.000-05:00i think of audrey TAUTOU as a big star. i certainl...i think of audrey TAUTOU as a big star. i certainly couldn't name another actor or actress from that movie. she was also the female lead in the movie version of <I>the da vinci code</I>, although she doesn't look at all the same without that impish smirk.<BR/><BR/>OMAHA steaks sound vaguely familiar, but i never saw that clue because i blew through that area using only acrosses. you're right that there are easier clues: nebraska, d-day, poker, mutual, even warren buffett. i've read <I>brave new world</I>, but i'm pretty sure SOMA is one of those things i knew about before reading the book. it's the drink of the hindu gods in the vedas, and also personified as a god himself.Joonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07825085755390339668noreply@blogger.com
