THE PUZZLE CORNER: JUNE 28, 2014

FUN FACT
The term "blue moon" does not refer to the moon's emotional state, but when there are 2 full moons in one month, the next occurrence of which will be July of 2015!


THE LETTER SHUFFLE
Today, we are going to make some 4 letter words using only the same 3 letters each time, because one letter will get used twice in each answer.
Can you guess what the words are, based upon the clues below?

01. Another possible word for Obi.
02. Food?
03. Persian ruler.
04. Pleasant sounds.
BONUS!
Two 3 letter words can be made with the letters used above.
Do you know what they are?

THE 50/50 CHANCE
This is just like a regular TRIVIA TIME question, except there are only 2 possible answers, hence the even odds of getting it right. Ready?

True or False: There are 7 song titles, one featuring each day of the week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday).

We'll reveal all next weekend. But for now, let's open THE ANSWERS BOX

NEXT?
What would be the next correct item in the following sequence?

JP, JC, JL, ____ (next?)

A lot of people guessed IZ, based upon the up and down procession of the last letter in the three given. However, the correct answer is CO, or CO'b, because the items represent previous hosts of The Tonight Show.
Jack Paar, Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, and Conan O'brien.

BEFORE AND AFTER
With two separate items sharing at least one word in common, the more erotic side of a popular medical drama would be
Fifty Shades of Grey's Anatomy.
