I rushed this one and made it way harder than it needed to be. I am learning that it is absolutely crucial to read and process every single word before making your first guess.

The fact that Keith Richards has outlived Richard Simmons, sure makes me question this whole, "healthy eating and exercise" thing

You must be a lot smarter than me, Tim - I can't seem to find a relationship between more than two or three words. I truly suck at this  ~X(

For me, it's feast or famine.  Crashed and burned yesterday, but perfect today.

I feel like you need Sherlock Holmes type knowledge for this game.

Smart is relative. I've seen more than enough of your posts to know that you're no slouch in the intelligence department.  :ok:

I'm still trying to develop from a strategic standpoint. One thing you definitely can't do in this is rush.

First two I thought were pretty gettable but then I stumbled a bit before getting the third. I actually don't know I found the third one harder than the first two. I don't really think it was. Sometimes the damn answer is right in front of you but you don't see it right away.

The fourth one I think was legit hard.
