We finally (seem to) have a beautiful weekend weather wise, so let's enjoy it with a few enigmas.
REBUS
A familiar word or phrase is represented by the image below. Do you know what it is?
H
HA
HAN
HAND

NDHA
DHAN
AND

D
THE FIFTY-FIFTY CHANCE
This is just like a regular Trivia Time question, only there are just two possible answers, hence the even odds of getting it right. Ready?
True or false: Clark Kent is from Krypton.
We'll reveal all next weekend. In the meantime, let's peek inside THE ANSWERS BOX and discover the results from our June 8, 2013 Puzzle Corner.
TRIVIA TIME
If you have a "periorbital hematoma", what are you suffering from?
(Hint: It isn't life threatening.)
You are recovering from a black eye.
THE LETTER SHUFFLE
"Hello folks. If you know what I am (in the picture on the right), then how many new words can you make out of the letters in my name?"
The little fellow with the rapid flight rate is a HUMMINGBIRD.
So out of the letters in the word HUMMINGBIRD, you can find the following:
Bid, big, bin, bird, brig, brim, bring, bud, bug, bum, bun
Dig, dim, din, ding, drug, drug, drum dub, dug, dumb, dung
Gin, grid, grim, grin, gum, gun
Hi, hid, him, hiring, hub, hug, hug, hum, humming, Hun
I, id, in
Mid, mud, mug, mum
Nib, nigh, nub, numb
Rib, rid, rig, rim, rind, ring, rub, rug, ruin, rum, run, (and) rung.
HUM, HUMMING, and BIRD do count since they were only part of the original (compound) word. Otherwise, more words than the 61 listed above might be possible.
