THE PUZZLE CORNER: APRIL 3, 2021

😎FUN FACT
Mars is the only planet whose current population is entirely robotic, that we can swear to.

BEFORE AND AFTER
Two separate items share at least one word, and so can be combined to create something new. Based upon the clue below, do you know what the new thing is?
A famous rock group’s bad dreams = ???

THE LETTER SHUFFLE
How many new words can you make out of the letters in EASTER?
Hint: There’s more than you think.

We’ll reveal all next weekend but for now, let’s open up THE ANSWERS BOX📦 and discover the results from the March 27, 2021 Puzzle Corner.

TRIVIA TIME
Manufacturers started adding iodine to table salt in 1924. WHY?
As an attempt to reduce the number of people suffering from goiters, which proved successful to continue the practice to this day.

THE 50/50 CHANCE
Just like a regular TRIVIA TIME question, except there are just two possible answers, hence the even odds of getting it right. Ready?
Which team did the most movies together: Robert Redford and Paul Newman or Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau?
It was JACK LEMMON AND WALTER MATTHAU with The Fortune Cookie, The Odd Couple, The Front Page, Buddy Buddy, Grumpy Old Men, Grumpier Old Men, Out to Sea, and The Odd Couple 2. Both also appeared in JFK but had no scenes together. Lemmon directed Matthau in Kotch but never appeared on camera.
Robert Redford and Paul Newman only did 2 memorable films together: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid along with The Sting.
