Today's Wordle

2022-05-18 - Wordle.jpg

I thought of SPOOR first, but that didn't seem like a Wordle word so I kept thinking.

Nice!

I've had 4 2's (out of 72 games). Never had a 1 and only had one 6.

No swing for me. Didn't have a clue yesterday, didn't have a clue today (I figured it was Holly Golightly/BaT, but didn't know it had songs in it).

(If you're after an observation deck in Seattle, might I recommend the Sky View? It's cheaper AND higher up) Also, the Sky View Observatory gives you a good (if admittedly somewhat distant) view of what is arguably the most distinctive and recognizable feature in the Seattle skyline. This is not tr...

When asked for clarification, as in if it should not be gathered from this omission that Bialik is not hosting, Erwich responded: “Correct.” Translation: When asked to commit to hosting this infamous mockery of the Jeopardy concept, Bialik replied, "despite appearances to the contrary if you'v...

I confused it with "smile", which of course made no sense.

That's a "good on her", not a missed opportunity.

Definitely the kind of clue I look at and ask, "Who the hell cares?"

Said Hunter S. Thompson just to say something.

Who exactly calls it the St. Louis Arch?

Think you would have thought of using GA? Probably could have scribbled that down.

No. In M Butterfly, the female lead does not kill herself, the male lead does. Only Madame Butterfly satisfies the clue.

:( :( :( :( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( :( Yet another 1-fer week. Sound and the Fury on Mon. Coachella and Burning man on Tues. No clue on Wed Mexico on Thurs. Have seen Godfather, although probably not in 25 years. Have set foot in GA literally over a hundred times between layovers at the airport, stop...

How soon we forget "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

Does anyone ever wonder if it's "permissible" to study for an upcoming one day? If you knew Cannes Prizewinners or Stephen Sondheim Lyrics was coming up you could clearly improve your score by reading up (a quick brushup or an all-nighter) with old friend Wikipedia or a zillion other sour...

It works as a homonym, but I don't know about the occupational part.

Like Senior Vice President or the like?

I've seen the movie, so I can't claim NHO, but yeah....

Had no clue that Woodstock was still going on in 99. Said Coachella and Burning man.

That annoyed me. Ken definitely would have given it.

No clue on FJ, although I did coincidentally guess a 1929 novel with The Sound and the Fury.

A few weeks ago.

I had the home field advantage along with Danielle on this FJ. I know that the Atlanta airport was the busiest airport in the world at one time (maybe it still is?) Just got the title back after losing it for a couple years. I've flown into ATL dozens of times, so there was no way I was missing this.
