THE PUZZLE CORNER: MARCH 12, 2011

Another weekend is upon us, and puzzle fans of this E-zine know what that means!

REBUS
A familiar, and in this case, timely phrase is represented by the image below. Do you know what it is?




THE FIFTY-FIFTY CHANCE
This is just like a regular Trivia Time question, but there are only two possible answers, so you have a fifity-fifty chance to get it right. Ready?

Did the Brothers Darryl, of Larry, Darryl, and Darryl; on Bob Newhart's second sitcom EVER speak?

We'll reveal all next weekend. Meanwhile, let's peek in THE ANSWERS BOX, for the results from March 5's Puzzle Corner!
