hehe, you almost had it tied up there... Throw some new ones in Mallet. You are consuming puzzles at an alarming rate.

Thin Mints are the number one selling Girl Scout Cookie The first Girl Scout Cookie Sale was organized in Philadelphia, Penn in 1933 Nancy Spungen was born and is buried in Pennsylvania Sid Vicious was arrested for the murder of Nancy Spungen (his lover/manager), but was never tried due to his suicide Arlo Guthrie and wasabi

YOU need to get a life? What does all this say about Janet and myself?

Cool. I learn something every day! You are a quick one insomniac. I haven't had a chance to figure out the scores yet, but soon I'll have a leader board.

I thought that was tomato soup? Anyway, it was certainly Campbells and less than three steps.

Charles Darwin spent two months in Australia in 1836 as part of his voyage around the world The Witchetty Bush (named for the grubs) grows in Australia and the grubs feed on the roots and are edible either raw or BBQ'd Marilyn Monroe and Slmfast Shakes

Tinky Winky and Sardinia Maggot Cheese Casu Marzu or maggot cheese is actually a round of pecorino cheese filled with thousands of wiggling maggots. The Wiggles are an Australian Band specializing in Childrens Entertainment The Teletubbies are a BBC program specilizing in Children's Entertainment Tinky Winky is a Teletubbie Mao Tse Tung and Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup

Thanks Janet! Wow, youi had an exciting night, and I am trying desperately to catch up! Daniel was a real dark horse, and the clam strip resolution was a thing of beauty. As far as I can tell we are at: Still in Play: Abraham Lincoln and Daikon Tinky Winky and Sardinian Maggot Cheese! Santa Claus and Kobe Beef Bing Crosby and carrots Aristotle and tortillas Wavy Gravy and White Truffle (added by me to make six) Can you do these in 3 or less degrees? Dillinger and a Glass of Milk (a big fat hint was dropped up thread on this one) Sun Tzu and Hansen's Diet Black Cherry Soda

Agreed. Pontormo scored one there.

From the research that I've done, it seems that the general consensus is that soy protein concentrate/isolate based products (shakes, veggie burgers, protein bars, infant formula etc.) are much more potentially harmful than less concentrated forms like tofu, tempeh, edamame and soy sauce. The more concentrated forms are what people need to be more aware of. So watch those boca bars, power bars and smoothies. Especially if you're a man. Men definitely don't need to be consuming natural forms of estrogen, even weak ones. ← Now, now, don't leave the other half of the population out. Millions of women are in the same boat I am, with family history documented that both indicates and contraindicates hormone replacement therapy. Osteperosis AND HRT related breast cancer, in my personal case - but there are others. Never try to tell a woman that estrogen is no big deal. You would do so at your own risk, and are catching me on a "good" day!

You go Busboy! It's your birthday! Go Busboy! It's your birthday!

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou The less we must consider Paris, the better I suppose. I would have thought something close would have come out of the hotel chain, however. Can you fill the empty slot with something more relevant?

In play: Paris Hilton and botarga (this is growing whiskers, would someone please put Paris out of her misery?) Bob Dylan and caviar Abraham Lincoln and Daikon Thaksin Shinawatara and injera (good one) New challenges to keep six in circulation: Ghengis Kahn and Spam Brad Pitt and Wattle Seed

I do know that soy has been touted as a natural replacement for synthetic hormones for menopausal women. I also know that it is not very effective. I sweat regardless of how much soy I use in my diet.

You are obviously good at this. Have any new puzzles to throw into the mix? I think Tolliver is referring to Dillinger and a glass of milk.

Give it a little time. If someone can do better than me, then they deserve my points! Fun.

A quick tip for lukers who might want to play. Google and Wikipedia are your friends. Research is not cheating, the connections do not have to spring full blown from your brow! If you sort of remember something, look it up and confirm it.

Still in play: Paris Hilton and botarga Samuel Pepys and Hamburgers. Bob Dylan and caviar Rembrandt and chutney (any flavour!) Martin Luther King, Jr., and lutefisk Nicole Kidman and Haggis Abraham Lincoln and Daikon Have fun.

Good job on the Hugo Chavez puzzle. Impressive Charles Darwin is the originator of the theory of evolution Inuit tribes in Northern Quebec opposed the teachings of Darwin's Theory of Evolution to Inuit Children Tourtiere is a meat pie originating in Quebec. Abraham Lincoln and Daikon

This was a really tough one, but I think I have it under six. A band from New Jersey named the Dillinger Escape Plan was named after Dillinger himself. They have been dubbed the Most Dangerous Band by NME in honor of Dillinger East Hanover, New Jersey is the HQ of the Nabisco Corporation The Nabisco Corporation manufactures Oreo Cookies A glass of milk is the necessary compliment to Oreo Cookies, and features in many commercials.

That's my understanding of the game as played in other applications. The shortest route wins the points. Yep, I wasn't sure you knew what you were getting into. I'll help. Have to retire for the day, but will be around for the morning shift. Good thing we live in different hemispheres. Oh, and should we add a bonus point for catching the individual actually eating the food proposed, as Scottie did?

Don't ask me now I know this, but: The "Best of Bowie" album released on a limited basis in Greece had a longer running time and additional tracks and is a collectors item Feta Cheese comes from Greece Nicole Kidman and Haggis

Charlie Parker moved to New York City in the 1930s to further his Jazz career New York City is in New York State New York State is the home of The Catskills The Catskills are commonly referred to as the "Borscht Belt" and they serve a great deal of it in the resorts there Emperor Hirohito and grits

Wow, thanks for raising this issue. Coincidentally, my husband and I saw a very disturbing report last night on the news. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/16431648.htm "Florida's emergency responders have been directed to kill wild bees, rather than relocate them the way trappers sometimes do with alligators, because it is the most efficient way to control the burgeoning Africanized bee population, Sklaroff said. Otherwise, he said, ``the queen will start to produce 1,500 eggs a day, and pretty soon, you have a very big problem.''" Now granted, this was a very large hive in a public park in a densely populated area, but destroying hives willy-nilly could have a devastating impact on Florida's Citrus, cucumber (we especially grow a lot of pickles in South Florida) and strawberry crops.
