Spelling checked 5-11-08
Since Part 1 narrows down the theme, degree of difficulty is raised by 1. Good Luck!

[1] Yeah, I thought that would make it easier to figure out the theme here, but so far, I am drawing a blank
Edit: sheesh; took me to the last clue to pick up which one we are talking about this time!

[2] Take a deep breath, you'll get it.
#9 - What's that on his head?

Salt for 17 and/or 13?

[4] You are correct. [1] Was checked to assure the words fit in the puzzle, please add an "e" to the end of #15.

By the way, sorry about some of the clues yesterday, I know "tilde" was a groan but I couldn't pass it up.

Edit: NM. I got it, but I have no idea what [12]'s hint means.

I must be the only fool who cannot get 21. No-one else has mentioned it!!
EDIT - Got it. I must be intolerant tonight. (great puzzle!)

I can't figure out if I have #9 or #11 wrong ...
EDIT: Finally found the right combination of words.

Okay, any hints on #11?
Never mind. Post & Comprehend.

Posted on Sun May 11, 2008 08:12 PM |
[33] I don't know for sure because I haven't solved it, but I think it has more to do with the location than any object in the picture.
Any salt for #17? It hurts my eyes to look at it too long.
perihelion
Posted on Sun May 11, 2008 08:14 PM |
[34] what do you see in the image? Say it aloud with the theme word.

Nice puzzle! (But I shudder to think how hard the next one will be, if the difficulty is raised by TWO!) :-) Thanks, steph_frolin!

I liked the puzzle but the flip-flopping on how to apply the theme-picture connection was frustrating. Some times the theme was part of the picture and some times it was added to the picture. Over all, good fun again though.

Have everything but #13. Just not getting it, even with [15]'s salt.

The thing is, [40], the inconsistency doesn't feel like an "increase in difficulty", it feels like an inelegance, as if you just couldn't really get it all to work right. Inconsistency is one of my least favorite forms of inelegance.

[39] If I were going up against Franz Ferdinand and he was trying to "Take Me Out", it's what he "just" is (other than being "a shot away from you"...)
13 was the last clue I got as well...
Ciabelle
Posted on Sun May 11, 2008 10:52 PM |
13 wasn't too much of a problem for me, but totally lost (having solved the puzzle) how one comes up with 19, other than the intersects and the theme.
Is this a tv show reference that I've missed? (as usual - never watch it)

Any hint on #11? It's not PARK or VANS. NEVERMIND... I didn't see the water.

[45] what kind of city is likely to have lots of cranes and containers?
monocle
Posted on Sun May 11, 2008 11:46 PM |
[40] aye... agreed. still frustrating. :)
[44] you would really only know it if you had seen the movie it came from. you have *NOT* seen the movie then back slowly out of the room because it is probably one of the funniest movies made.
