THE PUZZLE CORNER: JANUARY 10th, 2009

Another weekend, but who said you get the time off from solving some more of life's enigmas?

THE LETTER SHUFFLE
Another word can be made from each of the following just be rearranging the letters.
Do you know what the new words will be?
1. COULD
2. SMITE
3. OVERT
4. ANTSY
5. RINSE

TRIVIA TIME
Although it has had both good and bad definitions, who actually first coined the word NERD?

The answers will appear next weekend.
But now, here are the results for January 3rd, 2009.

TRIVIA TIME
Mary Pickford was the first lady to be Grand Marshall of a Tournament of Roses Parade.
Although I did receive several guesses in regards to former child star Shirley Temple-Black, Ms. Pickford beat her by 6 years (1933 vs. 1939).

COMMON BONDS
Believe it or not...
1. Crystal Gayle and Loretta Lynn are sisters.
2. Peter Graves and James Arness are brothers.
