If you're home for the holidays,
you may have some time,
to search for the answer,
not exactly a rhyme,
I'm so tired of playing
this game everyday,
the toil and effort are never the same,
so put on your thinking caps,
and grab yahoo or google,
it's time to work that thing
called a noodle.

I searched and searched for
this silly old word,
you can find it in the
song title--it's the second,
there's no third.
-----------------------------------------------------------

"There's miles and miles of strip mall smiles
Waiting to check you out
And all the conversations
Not so subtle invitations
But isn't that what this is all about"

GOOD LUCK

Thanks everybody!!!

John,

When the codes are hard to guess
or I spend what I think is too much time on them,
I post them as a riddle. So, below
the divider are song lyrics. You need
to find the second word of the song
title. That's your 250 pnt bonus word.
There is a 2500 pnt bonus word for
Sat but I will only work on that on the
day of the event.

Question Anyone else?

... get a sporting goods (baseball, etc) catalog in the mail from a co. called "LineDrive?" It's new to me, and I suspect it's from XTRA selling my contact info [after all, they've got to pay for those cheezie prizes that they refuse to give out codes to get the points for on the radio, right?]


Thanks again to Zippy for all his brilliant deductions, guessing & diligence!

Skeeve, your observations are
spot on. I suspect all of the Vegas winners
will get a call at dinner hour from some
telemarketer (who sounds suspiciously like
Jim Rome) trying to sell time share in Las
Vegas.

Hey Zippy!

You're the man! Thanks for all your posts.

BTW, I didn't need to guess all that hard after reading the bc extra credit for today, to find out what the one for 11/27/05, but i'll post it anyway! I already typed it in for tomorrow and it gave me the points!

2500 pnt bc 11/27: Sunday

Excellent work John. I tend to wait
till the stoke of midnight on the day
of the event though I doubt that it
matters. I just don't want to give
them an excuse to say "Hey, we
checked the log files and we're
taking your points back. "

Question


Has any of our more than 200
daily viewers actually physically
picked up their prize yet? Whether
it was the Warner's bros studio tour,
baseball glove, mouldy sneakers,
Robert Plant Hair Transplant kit..

I mean autograph, um...Tickets to
IceHouse comedy store, that is a
comedy store right? Jackson
limo service....uh...they pulled
that before you could buy it right?

Have you had to play phone tag
before picking up your prize?

Seems to be a blue Monday at the
code factory and thought we could
spice things up.

Heh

In the song Hoop Dreams Snoop Dogg is having
a dream of playing point guard on his
favorite team.

Name the team and you have
your 250 pnt bonus word
for 11/29.

Best of Luck
