THEME: words and phrases containing 4 A's
GOOD ONES:
Battery {& theme} AAAA [didn't know about these guys]
Missed the bus, forgot lunch, argued with the boss, etc. HAD A BAD DAY [enjoyed the length and related]
Napkin holder LAP
BTW:
Madison or Monroe, for short JAS [I had JIM and I'm right! What this Jas. jazz?] >:(
Busybody YENTA [Only among Jews is the Yiddish term possibly to be heard, and since we have a term in English, it seems superfluous. I like spritz and shhmooze but not ganef.]
RATING: ;D
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
-
JAS was used as an abbreviation for James in the old days, around the time those guys were active. Fair clue.

Thanks for the help, but I didn't say it was unfair or incorrect (not in brown), and I had the period to show it was an abbreviation. I just thought it outre. I mean, when was the last time you saw it?

Sorry, didn't know wrong was noted in brown. I don't think I've ever seen it in an original, current usage, just in excerpts from old documents.
