huh
Edit: oh

EXCELLENT!! Loved it!!

#8 made me want to give someone a really mean look... but eventually I got it by solving the ones around it

[1] You mean uhh.

Very nice... and fun!

I'm still on "huh?"

[6] The clue to the theme is in the title.

Great puzzle Cyncat! That was a fun one to do and took me back to my high school days.

[4] I'm with you

I think I just got it

One of my least favorite forms of wordplay...but this was a lot of fun. Thanks, CC!

Looked at all the clues at least twice before the meaning of HEAPS finally clicked.

Very nice puzzle!

Still not sure what the first half of 8 is, but got it anyway.

I got the first two, and then the theme kicked in with the title. Fun! (Although I still like Mixed Fruit better. ;)

[3] [13] #8: The arrow is not pointing to the device, but rather something on the device, if that's the right preposition.

That is what a hypercross should be. Excellent theme, vague at first, then the aha on clue 3, return and bust your brain when you get them all. Fantastic puzzle, extra points from me.

[17] Wasted almost an hour on this and still can't see anything. It's far more than vague and I don't think it's me.

I'm not seeing the theme either, filling in the blanks with just what I see isn't helping me....any salt? thanks

[19] but the number of blanks you fill in are the same number of letters for the answer sought.... hmmm... what could that mean? Ah! Look at the title agan!

HOW FUN!! great job, Cyn!

Nice puzzle, once it clicked.

Took me a bit to get the trick, but this was a real nice puzzle

still not clicking, probably not going to, oh well, can't do them all right?

[20] Been there, did that! Still meaningless.

It's the fairness and helpfullness of the clues - and the fact that the answers are not random - that makes this one terrific.

Well done.

[26] pushed me in the right direction. I was working on a google search in that direction and almost was there but checked the comments first. It was a good puzzle once I figured out what was going on.

Wonderful puzzle! I really enjoyed this one.

OMG! I loved this puzzle!

[26]salted. then easy *yawn*
