I thought I might have stumped you, but I should have known!

LEIMUSSYRYOT

Looks like MYSTERIOUSLY...yes.

CLTRTAURUS

BASITANE

Nice anagram for "structural"

Where do you dump the bag after you finish brewing?
In the TEABASIN, of course.

I think I had better abstaine from this one.

Another possible answer for BASITANE:

ABSENTIA

Yes, Arnie, you got it!

Oh, and Jerry, I am verrry unsure about this, but is it: Geomorphologists?

I hadn't heard of it, but I see that it is the study of the evolution and configuration of landforms. Can't say that I've known a geomorphologist either! I found morph and then ologists and put them together.

GEOMORPHOLOGISTS is correct, Kalleh.

How about TABUCURARES ??

If you haven't met one of them, you're fortunate.

Sorry, I forgot to put another word.

ELANTORICNE

bureaucrats...did you realize how very close to
"sub-creature" that is?

CRINSITUSTON

SODBILESPA

Sorry I've been absent so much Kalleh - new working practices, dodgy internet access and having my boss sitting directly behind me have all severely curtailed my internet socialising!

We understand, Ros. As Tinman once said here, it's too bad that work gets in the way or our posting!

Jerry, really there ought to be a word "bleepershrine!"

I am still working on sagslicer. [It isn't "cigarless," is it?]

It is CIGARLESS, Kalleh! ... as in "Close, but no cigar."

... and ... moving right along ....

Oh...I really didn't think that was it.

ORANGELUNDTQI

NUDIERIOT = (( Having superior knowledge of the recent uprising at the local Sunshine Club.))

SUGARPAAR

So close to "asparagus!"

Still working, but I do like Sugar Paar!

SUGARPAAR...

It's a new magazine in America...

RAP RAG USA..

...it was meant to be asparagus. Guess I was rushing again, and careless. (hang-head-in-shame emoticon)

You think I can get away with claiming it's "one asparagu, two asparagus"? Y'know, fifth declension, long u ?

And by the way, it takes special talent to get the right answer from the wrong input. (That's a compliment!)

Well, to be honest, I had a hunch that it might really be asparagus. However, I knew that I was dealing with a true logophile here, and I just couldn't make that assumption! [And, that's a compliment, too!]

Now, KHC (so good to see some new people here! ), I did like your magazine title!

Next word:

GEMLOYTOY

OMOOGENTLY
(a softer Melville story, not for folks with a Typee personality)
(or, instructions for Elsie with her new-born calf)

Since I was raised on a farm, I will take the latter definition of your anagram.

LINACAGUTROTSON

Poor Linaca has the stomach flu!

Congratulations!

Now for CJ's favourite:
BRITNEYSPEARS

I think the more common anagram for this is BEST IN PRAYERS , yes?


MISSTHEDOT

(couldn't even do a simple child's game right)

BEST IN PRAYERS

Not the (one) word I was thinking of...

...first ran into it as PRESBYTERIANS in a Daily Telegraph Crossword collection in 1955. Don't know how much older than that it really is! :-)

That's the one!

Okay, so let's go on.

MISSTHEDOT

Oh, I have been trying to go....I am just stuck!

methodists

An easy one...
SNAGMARA

Sometimes I can't understand why some of them are so easy for me and others are so difficult!

Greenmendo

Mondegreen

OPARTIST

Hmmm, I can't for the life of me understand where that came from!

RACQUETBARK

...and I didn't even want to watch the game (I don't deal well with suspense) but my wife, who knows little about football but comes from Boston, made me do it.

IMPOVERASHES
[goes bankrupt in a fruitless attempt to treat a pesky skin condition]

Oh, but I bet you watched this, Hab! (heh! heh! )

ABEERSSIR? for those creative commercials!

[Now, I am sure you Brits will have no clue, unless of course you get more media from us than I realize. ]

Fortunately I skipped the halftime show, stripper, streaker, and all. But in general I thought the commercials were disappointing and in poor taste. Particularly the flatulent horse, and the brawling oldsters. And the game itself was not a sparkling performance on either side, either, even if it was exciting.

(But look at all the potential anagram words in that paragraph!)

ISTAPES

The teams didn't seem that interesting to me (no offense!), so unfortunately I missed all the fun!

NURSEHILQI

Good one.

If one I were an A it would be HARLEQUINS

(Actually, the offense was pretty good, at least in the second and fourth quarters, but the defense was definitely not up to its usual standard.)

ERRORIFGREAT

Kewl !!!

(From my perverted point of view, all football is offensive.)


CLASSILYRURALITE = Willie Nelson ?

I like baseball and basketball, and I have tried to like football. However, it seems that they all stand together, suddenly run at each other, and then do it again. I think I need to learn the nuances!

HATPINCHORLIP
