Title: Wed., 5/29 Gunderson & DuGuay-Carpenter
Post by: magus on May 29, 2013, 08:59:52 AM
THEME:   First words of four phrases are anagrams for the word FLIED, one of the four.  (But it's covert.)
   
BTW:   
ESO should be clued by the song "Eso Beso."   
   
"Grammar school" is passe; it's now elementary school.    
   
Move to new soil   REPOT [To repot, one keeps most of the soil and moves the plant to a larger pot --- it's not the new soil but the new pot.  Moving to new soil would be replanting.]   
   
Hold your hats!  I knew Fatboy Slim.  My daughter put it on my i-Pod.  He's pre-literate ("Brova" = "brother") but the music and redundant lyric are catchy.   

It is sad that the theme is likely to be missed for lack of a title which could give a hint to the theme.  LAT is nothing if not stubborn.   
   
RATING:    ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
