A favorite of mine from years past, this puzzle by Stitchman has an alphabetical list of seemingly unrelated words actually contains 15 groups of three related items. Your job is to sort them out into those 15 groups.

Oh, by the way...all groups have at least 4 words that will be tempting - sometimes even more.

sherlock

= 1. Bilbo Baggins
= 2. Board
= 3. British Army Captain
4. Camelot
= 5. Canoe
= 6. Defibrillator
= 7. Dice
= 8. Dodger
= 9. Dominos
10. Eight
= 11. Electric Eels
= 12. Ferry
= 13. Fraternities
= 14. Gladys Knight
= 15. Godfather’s
16. Greece
= 17. High
18. Holy Grail
= 19. Hungry Howie's
20. Ice
= 21. IKEA
= 22. Kayak
= 23. Kiss
24. Knight
= 25. Lima
= 26. Little Caesars
= 27. Madam
= 28. Navy
29. Oil
= 30. Paris
= 31. Ping Pong
= 32. Pinto
= 33. Prussian
= 34. Racecar
= 35. Radar
= 36. Round Table
= 37. Rubik
= 38. San Salvador
= 39. Scuba
40. Seoul
= 41. Sky
42. Slugs
= 43. String
= 44. Sugar
= 45. Surf Board

Categories:

= A. Acronyms
= B. Alliterative word pairs
= C. Beans
= D. Cubes
= E. Diving
F. King Arthur
= G. Palindromes
= H. Pizza Chains
= I. Shades of Blue
J. Slippery Things
= K. Things With Paddles
= L. Things with Pips
= M. Water craft
N. Words that have a Homophone
= O. World Capitals

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.
