Hello… Pay attention now because all the answers to these clues end in the letter “O”.
1. Company absorbs air for capital 2. Minty sport 3. Shakespeare title and character 4. Shakespeare character shares a title 5. Battle station 6. Canadian province 7. DROP on TOE for a direct hit below the surface 8. KID FALCON with a scratch handicap 9. Keep Jo out to get music 10. Black, rectangular with white spots 11. Rice dish 12. Blazing zero, pink 13.

๐♀️Yahoo.. that’s better that a start, Ed. 21 of your 25 answers are correct.
Now.. look for a different battle station than the Alamo (5), and a better-sounding coin than the peso (27). Recalculate the equation in number 20 and get serious about number 35 (very funny, BTW).
๐So… we still need these 14 answers: 1, 5, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 24, 26, 27, and 35.
๐♀️Woo hoo … the job is done. All 35 answers are correct.
And Ed, you are right to second BJ’s vote for EURO as the coin “not for us”.๐ The quiz master chose GOZO for #15๐
PS: ๐LUMBAGO fits for #22 because a lum is a chimney. When Scottish people want to wish you a long and happy life, they can be heard to say, “Lang may yer lum reek“. It means, “Long may your chimney smoke“.๐
๐๐ป♂️You’re right, Ed, that was quick. ๐Next month’s clues are song titles with missing words. ๐ถ It will probably take me longer to type out than for my music-loving family to solve.๐ฅ๐ธ๐น๐ผ

And Ed, you are right to second BJ’s vote for EURO as the coin “not for us”.๐
The quiz master chose GOZO for #15๐
PS: ๐LUMBAGO fits for #22 because a lum is a chimney. When Scottish people want to wish you a long and happy life, they can be heard to say, “Lang may yer lum reek“. It means, “Long may your chimney smoke“.๐
Yeah. I knew of lumbago as a painful back condition, that fit the BA and the go, I did look up lum in the dictionary and found the Scot reference.
That didn't take us long, lots of fun
Thanks

QUOTE OF THE DAY:
For there is no friend like a sister,
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands.
~Christina Rossetti, "Goblin Market," 1862
Happy Birthday Louise.๐๐๐
This quote speaks of you, my sister, my friend. I'm so lucky!๐๐ป
Have a happy, happy day.
Lots of love and laughter,
ME
