Post by: magus on May 27, 2015, 09:25:59 AM
THEME:   EIGHT found jumbled in phrases
   
GOOD ONES:     
Card game {& theme}   CRAZY EIGHTS [crazy in that the word is misspelled]   
Dash of flavor?   MRS [spices brand name Mrs. Dash]   
   
BTW:   
Steve Martin film based on Cyrano   ROXANNE ["Police lover?" might get a chuckle]   
   
Half a Billy Idol song   MONY ["Mony Mony" was a song before Billy knew about hair dye and based on an electric sign with a missing letter intending to spell MONEY.  This annoying song was first sung by Tommy James and the Shondells, and I'm sure Idol rerecorded it only to drive me crazy, which I must be for knowing this stuff.]   
   
   
RATING: ;D   
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
