I am so sorry, KHC. Are you sure that you don't want to try downloading another browser? It would at least help to diagnose the problem.

SERENDIPITY

salary pis

[edit: Hab, we posted at the same time.]

salary pis...

paralysis

Kalleh, I solved yours... I'm still working on Hab's

I won't enter another word until his is solved..

Hab,
My best guess is Slut Iris Oil...

And I know that isn't right! Hints!?

Sigh. I dood it again. Too many repeated letters and a careless transcription error. No wonder it's a problem solving it.

Should have read LUSUSIRITOL

"That was just to make it difficult."

As in
Q: What's green, hangs from a tree, and squeaks?
A: A herring.
Q: Huh?
A: Well, can't you paint a herring green?
Q: Yes...
A: Can't you hang a herring from a tree?
Q: Yes...
A: So there you are!
Q: But what about the squeak?
A: Oh, that was just to make it difficult!

I finally got the picture! it's

CINEMATOGRAPHY !

SUPER-ATOM one word

Agatha Christie's mousetrap!!



big lung thing .... 2 words..

Big Lung Thing ..... LIGHTNING BUG


EMILES CONCUBINE

Intriguing, Jerry. Is it one word or two? One word seems so long!

Just one word, Kalleh, and it does seem too long, but in fact it's just long enough. Think of the lively light of the lightning bug ....

bioluminescence

Is that a word, jerry?


Here's another to solve:

respect ragbag.... one word

quote:

---

Is that a word,jerry?

(click on "word")

respect ragbag = carpetbaggers

I IN CAPITOL - one word

Here comes another politician... run for your lives!


nags faint ha ... one word

nags faint ha

Afghanistan

IS LEANEST (One word)

essential

SPRAY UP one word

SPRAY UP

papyrus

IS IT LIEUT (One word)

utilities

Post a roton icing (one word)

UTILITIES

POSTMAN H

(Edit: I'll do yours later, when I get around to it. If I do. Maybe not; you never can tell. But not now, anyway, that's for sure.)

Kalleh - post a roton icing - prognostication

Hab - postman h - phantoms

Weird, that both words started with 'post'..

lifted table - one word

BATTLEFIELD

LITERALLY FIRED (2 words)

I am never as sure about these 2-word ones:

Considering the previous one, artillery field ? Or, it could be artillary Fidel, though I doubt it.

Assuming I am right:

Cues vex Lily one word

cues vex lily

Exclusively...

a pencil decoy - one word, out of date since Google

ENCYCLOPEDIA

CONSULTFREE

consult free[/]

Like a lightning bug... fluorescent!

[b]sex pimento

This is done to satisfy CJ's craving for sex over words...

sex pimento

exemptions

MAULER ANUS Two words.

Mauler anus...(Sounds serious)


USER MANUAL...?


acorn weds list.... two words!

I don't think you meant SILENT COWARDS but it's there...

also WISER SCOTLAND
(and SCOTLAND WIRES)
SWINDLER COAST
nuns do their magic with CLOISTER WANDS
among other DOLTIC ANSWERS

That's what happens when you have a collection of high-frequency letters!

A few more that I suspect you didn't mean:

ACTORS SWINDLE
WILD ANCESTORS
ROWDIEST CLANS
COWARDS ENLIST
LEWD CROISSANT (The mind boggles at the last).

If you like anagrams you'll love The Anagrammy Awards Forum.

I'm sorry this has been so difficult for you Brainiacs..

I checked my typing... I'm okay.

Think Queen Elizabeth (Arnie!).... and her domicile..

wild ancestors - We all have a few.
cloister wands - magic Harry Potter nuns.
lewd croissants - I shall not go there..

quote:

---

Think Queen Elizabeth

Aha!

WINDSOR CASTLE

UNNOTICED ATOM (One word).

UNNOTICED ATOM

I know there is "contumely"; does that make DECONTUMATION a word?

(Wait a minute; I'll have to look through the documentation to verify it.)

LYEBUTTS

Oh, Hab...
You are the master of subtlety....



simian toy.... one word!

animosity

chum is vain one word

chum is vain

Chauvinism

TECHIE MAVEN (One word)

ACHIEVEMENT

WEST FARRAD one word
("false comparative" of STRAW FAD)

Hab!

I will visit West Farrad, afterwards, I will visit East Farrad.

orbit earl... my father flew this from England to Germany in WWII

orbit earl

Liberator

TITLIST CASA (One word).

TITLIST CASA - STATISTICAL

(Re: "false comparative" above:
--comparative = take the original, add "-er" meaning even more so, as in "big, bigger"
--false comparative - same form, but not the same meaning at all! Consider "glow, glower," "flow, flower," for example.
Maybe we should make a new thread and explore the form, if there's any interest?)

Meanwhile, back at the ranch:
PRIVATE LUES - one word. The very best possible anagram, actually.

SUPERLATIVE

cower cow
lower low
mower mow
power pow
rower row
sower sow
tower tow


PENNY HOISTER (don't get too worked up! one word)

PENNY HOISTER

hypertension

CLASSIC BEE (One word)

Continuing the "false comparative" theme:

BUG: BUGGER

classic bee = ACCESSIBLE

I think we ought to exclude from False Comparatives pairs of words where the -er suffix means "he who...".

And I'm blocking the name of the word that is the start of the "xxxx-ive, comparative, superlative" triad. It isn't "nominative." Fill it in for me?

rid, rider

TINY TIGER

Don't know about the third in the triad of comparatives and superlatives.

Integrity

tutu pride [one word] What my 4-year-old daughter used to have when she attended ballet classes.

Not good for morale - TURPITUDE

and speaking of tutus, let's try

PRUNE STAND - one word

UNDERPANTS at pre-inflation prices ... in other words,

OLD RATES
