Re your SUSURRUS: Sorry; my seven-letter-word word's unusual, but not _that_ unusual!

And your word is PLENIPOTENT.

Perhaps we can find one with CLEANER INTENT ?

Sometimes I feel 100 years old, but don't want to live to celebrate my tercentennial!

The poorly freshman has a

("Tercentennial" was my three-hundredth anagram here since I started counting them.)

Your poorly freshmen are UNDERGRADUATEs.
How many of them do you suppose
R SPOOFERS in disguise?

One would think that a professor would profess rather than spoof.

If you're planning to work with ZINFANDELS, I'd suggest a STONE IGLOO.

(I doubt I would have gotten this if it wasn't related.)

What are the odds that a qualified oenologist would be available. Probably about the same as that for the nut connoisseur who PANS THE PECAN.

BLUES DUO?? I'm not sure...

One would probably have to be lettered, like our President, to get it.

Well it's DOUBLE-U + S -- though it could just as well be "UU", read "double-you," meaning George "W" -- but these don't exactly match your letters. Is this some variation of what you had in mind?

I could be wrong, but I thought the correct way to spell out the letter 'W' was "double-u", and if you had more than one of them it would be "double-us". I made it plural because I was just trying to get it to eight letters & could use the 's' (probably a mistake ). Anyway, whether I was correct or not, Hab got it, so it is his turn.

Funny how it often works out that if a professor is for it, then a confessor is against it.

Hint: a professor usually qualifies as one of these.

Never would have gotten it without your hint!

How do you differentiate a STAINED TIGER from the ordinary kind?
