We started the day with Aloha Shirt Friday and, well, that just put me in a really good mood. Even better than the really good mood I was already in. So, I thought I'd start something new:
Come on! It's a game! It's online. What more do you really need to know.
To the left is an image of today's puzzle. I guess you could print it out and do it old school. You'll need a small point pen and some really good eyes if you do. But you'll have more fun if you link right to it!
OH MAN! I HAVE TO PLAY RIGHT NOW!
If you all like it. I'll do a regular one and I'll make 'em harder. This one's a piece of cake.
Tomorrow I will be posting an ActiveRain Word Search. There is a method to my madness.
Jeff Turner aka respres


By the way, this is all you'll win if you win. But in my world, winning is it's own reward.
Laura, thank you for humoring me. You might have fun!
Maureen, well, it's the most famous signature according to ME! Though I think many would agree. Think "cat" only bigger.
Hubba...
I am soooooo screwed. I can't see it man...
I went to the eye doc yesterday. I now know why the readers are not working.
Turns out I need REAL glasses :)
I'm gonna have to print it out. I'll be back as soon as I solve it.
I don't want to hear one single remark from you about my needing glasses. HUSH. LOL....
Jeff, very cool..a MAC item I'm sure. but I'm feeling down since this is the easy one... :(
7 across.. hhmmm beer doesnt fit.. how about beeeeeer? no, I know 4 down for sure..
please dont make them harder!!!
ohhh fun! I'm gonna try it out now!
Welcome To Jeff Turner's Blog.... :)
Yup. I'm Hijacking it :) Kiss it good bye Hubba ... Wink. Wink....
Okay, it's time for us to have some fun and help each other.
Nick, I can't change it, but I can ask Hubba (Jeff) too... :)
I don't care about the prize. What I do care about the fun, well if you call banging your head against a wall FUN :)
Okay. Here's my problem I have the puzzle done except for 10 and 13 down. Does anyone want to share clue?
I will trade a clue for 10 or 13 down for a clue on something you don't have. Any takers? :)
TLW...ROAR!
I'm stumped.. when you think a certain one down is correct, then the across doesn't work out..
yikes!!! I'll keep trying though....
are we allowed to trade clues here publically? cause you know I dont normally break the rules.. (yeah right!)
LOL... here are some clues...
Nick, 7 across, search profiles and "st. paul" and see if that helps you
TLW, LOL, banging head against wall...
10 down clue: maybe if I'm more specific, Orem, Utah, in Utah County
13 down: seriously, how many people in Detroit come to mind?
Helloooooo.... I am still pressing that F5 key..... RotFlat.. :)
I DID IT.... Ahhh. Good. My head was starting to hurt from this :) See ya round the rain....
TLW...ROAR!
TLW... you, of all people, should be able to do this puzzle!!! Now, remove head from wall and concentrate, let out a big 'ole ROAR (one of the answers) and go zen on it!
Jay and John, glad you enjoyed it. Next week I'm going to do a more well thought out educational version. This was just a whim. :)
Is someone planning on paying me for all that work?
Yah. I know I'm talking to myself. Sure beats the WALL.... LOL....
TLW...ROAR!
Oh! There you are. I did do it. I'm having a DUH day remember? LOL...
My zen doesn't work very well when I am having a DUH. :) ROAR! My ROAR works well though :)
It could be worse. I could be the ROARLESS Lovely Wife LOL....
There we go APPLE....Wanna bite? :)
TLW...ROAR!
Jeff, cool toy. If you put a harder one out, i'm going to hide!
ok, ok, so I went off to eat, and passing by the PC. finally got it!! yoo hoooo!!
you guys like that F5 key,? try the shotcut to highlight all links.. uuhhmm. press down ALT + the F4 key.. yeah, that's the one! try..
This is fun but I can't manage to get all the answers - I need a cheat sheet!!!!!
Ann
Ann....
Read all the comments. Most of the clues in this comment thread lead you to the answers :)
Nick....
I have a blister on my "pointing" finger because of you. LOL....
Hubba....
Okay. I admit it. I enjoyed the challenge. Do you have a band aid? My head is bleeding :)
TLW...ROAR!
I was laughing so hard when reading this that Rick came to check on me! You guys are the best. What a great idea JEFF - you do it everytime! Did you guys see what Craid did to Rick?
Hubba....
"It seemed easy to me, but then again, I made it up".....
That was the problem. You're a flippin genius :)
I mean really "time to draft"... If I didn't know you so well I would have been seriously stuck on that one :)
I like the word searches better. I'm not very good at crossword puzzles. I don't want to think. I want to PLAY :)
If I wanted to think I would go ahead and write a new post. But, that requires waaay too much thought. LOL.....
TLW...ROAR!
ARDELL!!!! I'm going to throw up a word search today... all the answers are right there in front of you with a word search.
TLW, your word search will be up in moments.
Jeff - yesss he does! LOL
I'm still missing a couple here. The F5 key did not work for me NICK and TLW - are you done TLW?
Ines....
Yes. I did it last night :) Watch out for that F5 button...It will give you a blister on your fingertip. Wink. Wink.
Hubba...
If you're not going to post it here give me my link :)
TLW...ROAR!
I can't believe Jeff already did the other puzzle, I'm stuck on number 5 - "spelled with an X" - I thought of Jeff Corbett - mr. Xman himself - but can't figure it out.....any hints? PLEASE PLEASE!
Duhhh! It was X
Hubba...
I had to come share this with you. Look what someone did to my Hubba! Bubba!
I like it. Looks like I will in fact be shaving his head. This is working for me :)
I have a...... (Ahhhh...........I needed that for this) LOL....
TLW...ROAR with a Purr ....
OMG!!! That is too much!! you see what you are causing here Jeff?? I'm digging Bryant like that too TLW - I think the head shaving is very doable!
Poor Rick and Bryant better start running!
Ines...
Look at what BB did :) RotFlat
TLW...ROAR!
Ines...I think 'slippin him a mickey' may be a better idea. LOL... No side effects at all :) Don't ask me how I know that. SVW.
Hubba...I already told you to kiss this post goodbye. It's not your post anymore. Once again Ines have taken it from you. LOL...
What kind of smart a*s remark can I possibly come up for a freaking plum :)
TLW...ROAR!
Hubba...
I came over here to try out my glasses. Ahhhh....I can see the puzzle now :)
And geez that's some mouth TLW has on her. ROAR! :)
TLW...ROAR!
Ines, you know we got 6 of 'em right? :)
TLW [SVW]... you like my new intro when I'm talking to you?
Jeff - I figure I have 3 of my own (actually 4 if I count Rick) - what's 6 more? I can speak to them in Spanish and they'll look at me like I am CRAZY! BTW - If Rocky's laundry reflects just a tiny little bit of your kids' behavior........it should be a piece of cake.
{SVW} Hubba...
Of course I do. You've branded your remarks to me :)
I'm pretty big on branding. ROAR....SVW...
TLW...ROAR!
Would you stop diverting me, please. I have listings to put in the MLS and my fingers want to play with crossword puzzles. Where are the answers? I got a bunch but not all.
And now I can't even tell BB and Jeff apart. OK I better get back to real estate. Thanks for the diversion.

Oh No! Are you telling me your kids are not well behaved? The laundry room was staged!! Maybe he can help you stage the kids - he already staged Bryant.
Even if they are not behaved (which I doubt highly) - I have a fire extinguisher - plenty of band-aids - and lots of candy. Everything necessary to watch kids.
Finally got to complete the crossword puzzle..pretty challenging...thanks..love 'em.
Now, if you completed it within 5 minutes, do you get anything?
NOt that I DID. :)
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Lisa. I need to do another one soon.
403 Forbidden...is the message when trying your puzzles after more than 3 years. Was fun just reading the old comments.
