Possible Title: Wild Men Hiding

Theme: “Uncivilized” words ending phrases

By the Way:
Dude, to a hipster   DADDYO [a tad anachronistic:  DADDYO was 1950; Dude is modern --- so a hipster would never call a dude DADDYO today, and in mid-century last he’d never call DADDYO a dude since they were never synonymous.]

Victor   CHAMPION [maybe the other way around, maybe.  The champion is usually the victor, but not always.  Certainly, the victor is hardly a champion.  Think of all the sporting games at which you were victorious --- are you a champion?  I suspect the clue would be more often accurate if it were “Male.”  So, I’d go with “Gene Autry’s horse.”


RATING:   ;D Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
