THE PUZZLE CORNER: AUGUST 22, 2009

Okay puzzle fans. Let's get those little grey cells working and try to solve this weekend's enigmas.

TRIVIA TIME
How many former Presidents of the United States of America are NOT buried somewhere within the United States?

THE LETTER SHUFFLE
It's back for an encore! Time for another round of "The Case of the Missing Vegetables!"
Each word below, added to the letters of a specific vegetable, can be shuffled around to form a new word.
Do you know the answers?
1. FIN
2. BILE

The answers will appear next weekend, but for now, the results from August 15, 2009:

WORD PLAY
The longest word possible with only 1 vowel? Depends upon how often you use the vowel.
If only once, then the word is STRENGTH.
If multiple times, then the word is MISSISSIPPI.

WHAT'S THAT SONG?
Although the tune hints at a political viewpoint, the lyric is actual from Heart and Soul by T'Pau, circa 1987.
The actual verse is:
Somehow, I lost my way
Looking to see something in your eyes
But love will never compromise
Now this is the politic of lies...
