LAT Sun. 4/15 Gagliardo & Burnikel
« on: April 15, 2012, 09:26:14 AM »
Alternative title: “K-K-Katie” [but you have to know the WWI song instead of K-2 (pot)]

Good Ones:
Diamond head?   DEE [note lower case “head”]
Dip in “Swan Lake”?   PLIE [sadly that’s what the lovers did]
Private aye   YESSIR
Big name in china   SPODE [might be better to clue it “China big name” to avoid the lower case]

Theme: last K and first K in two-word phrases

By the Way:
Gather discriminately   CULL [it can mean both gather and expel]

Some IDIOMATIC Nits to Pick:
Stick to policy   SITPAT [it’s stand pat or sit pretty]
Charge   RUSHAT [it’s run at or rush]

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