-4. channel (7) [c---u--], cut (8) [l---r---], library (7) [a---i--], passable (4) [o---]
-5. fill with holes (6), spoof (6), sprite (5), Toyota model or movie (6)
-6. former Japanese capital (5), letter (7), measure of electrical resistance (3), shade of blue (6)

Thanks for the map, Cue - would have been Mission (even more) Impossible without it lol


To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self.

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

Rog, I felt in the giving mood. lol

CCB, Bob and Sondi. Right on the mark! thumbsup

Michele 1 and 3 look good. Manxman, 1 and 2 make the grade. So you guys are in the right area of the country. The answers all start with the state abbreviations.

Bob, glad you like the puzzle. I have complete faith in our Boomers to get through this. grin

You nailed it Joan! bravo

You have 3 out of 4, Michele. The second word needs some work. It starts with the right letter but it should be 7 letters. smile

I found several 8 letter names that start with ID or AZ but none are common to me. Idabelle seemed to me to be the likeliest. smile

Looks good, manxman. I had gallivant but gad works for me too.
Nice teamwork, Bob and Joan. I like either identity or identify.
That's the one michele. Great solves everyone! thumbsup

I left hints for the last two.
