Greetings! Another weekend is upon us, so here is a fresh crop of puzzles for your enjoyment.
BEFORE AND AFTER
Two separate items have at least one word in common, allowing them to be combined to form a new item. Based upon the clue below, do you know what it is?
The story of a historic figure of the Revolutionary War in America, written by that person's famous grand-nephew over a century later.
NEXT?
It's been quite a while since we've played this. A sequence is started below. Do you know what the next item within it would be?
We'll reveal all next weekend. But for now, let's peek inside THE ANSWERS BOX and discover the results of our baseball themed Puzzle Corner from October 5, 2013.
FAMOUS FIRSTS
The first team to win two World Series titles in the 21st century is the Boston Red Sox (2004 and 2007)
TRIVIA TIME
Everyone (presumably) knows the classic Bud Abbot and Lou Costello baseball routine "Who's On First?", but do you remember the actual team roster?
We started you out, but it was up to you to complete the list.
While the set up for the routine changed with each telling to keep the sketch fresh, the roster always remained constant.
FIRST BASE: WHO
SECOND BASE: What
THIRD BASE: I don't know
LEFT FIELD: Why
CENTER FIELD: Because
PITCHER: Tomorrow
CATCHER: Today
SHORT STOP: I don't care (the last punch line in the routine)
And the Right Fielder was NEVER named!
But now, courtesy of You Tube, here's Bud Abbot and Lou Costello, performing the rendition of "Who's On First?" that was part of The Actor's Home episode from their television series in 1953.
