Post by: magus on June 20, 2013, 09:12:33 AM
THEME:   least letters of phrases are alcoholic drinks
   
GOOD ONES:    
Bit of oneupmanship {& theme}   PARTING-SHOT [the alcoholic shot is at the end; hence, parting]   
   
BTW:   
The exotic seems to have dominated this offering:     
POR favor;    
el este/ SOL;   
VOX populi;   
STE;   
Av/ELUL;   
ETE.   
I can accept the first four, but not Jewish months and French seasons.  [Do you know how to say spring, fall, or winter in French?  No?  That's because they don't appear in Xwords.]   
   
   
RATING: ;D   
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
