Yeah, there were too many variables in the remaining choices, even with my good start, to choose a 2nd word without winnowing down the options. I don't like playing

Holy crap.

I don't know what it was--with a couple exceptions, it's certainly not how I remember things. Either they're doing some wordplay that went over my head, or things have changed since the last time I checked.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
Are the two of you referring to Strands or Connections? Stands was odd and I'm totally flummoxed by Connections - I haven't made my first move yet.

Re: Games, Riddles, Puzzles, and other Distractions
I'm talking about Strands anyway, and the answer is that things have changed since my memory formed. But they also changed before that. There is no truth, everything is relative!

I got all the words in Strands but one, and I don't understand the relation with the theme.

The Mini was amusing. And Strands was very easy. Extremely hit-and-miss, that one.
