Wilbur, did you happen to tell Archie what time to do this? I waited for an hour past posting time, and when there was no sign of any activity, went ahead and set up a fresh day myself. Using these blurry images, it took me less than 5 minutes, and I bet I can do it in less than 1 minute if I'm challenged. The puzzle becomes available at 11 PM Mountain Time, and I try to get it up just after 12 Midnight.
ReplyDeleteOwen, he had a long day. I'll check on him.

I had SMOTED for #3 today. Riddle-solution was easy if I played with it longer.

"Romance"
ReplyDeleteAfter a visit to his mosque
he met a girl at the kiosk.
She was beautiful and modest
and he saw her as his goddess.
She was there all alone,
as unique as a clone,
and she made his heart gyrate
at an extraordinary high rate.
He bought her a lovely locket
which made her heart sky-rocket.
And so for six great months they dated
and last week they were blessedly mated.
Took me forever to get this--I should have paid attention to your hint, OMK.

That was all the hint I had, Misty, and you saw how it worked for me.
ReplyDeleteYour piece today is a very smooth read!
I think it a classic.
~ (Never one to mislead) OMK
WC ~ And I believe Wordle had SMOTE (or SMITE?) recently.
ReplyDeleteIsn’t that right?
~ OMK
Loved your wedding haiku too, Ol' Man Keith).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Misty.
ReplyDeleteYes, I believe we are all in favor of "natural cloning."
(Regardless of our position vis-à-vis "Dolly" the ewe.)

Late to the party today. We had company.

Loved your Romance Misty.
Omk, smote/smite sounds familiar but wordle leaves my brain as fast as it goes in.
ReplyDeleteOutside of trying to fit clone into a poem about romance Misty indeed composed an entertaining, readable tale
With her trademark happy ending.
Owen, it's been another long day for Archie but he might give it a try about 2am EDT
30 minutes until wordle
