When you fall off a horse, everyone says "Get on again before you lose your nerve". So here goes...

Bait and switch: Each clue below can be answered by changing one letter in the given, capitalized word, and then anagramming the letters. Some easy, some may be alterative spellings, hyphenated or Britspeak, and a few that may need the Stitchionary. There may even be the odd two-word answer...

Not quite as many as usual, but feel free to grab a couple.

The word this time is very appropriate:

GROVEL

-1. In abundance
-2. Person living in rented quarters
-3. Herb, levisticum officinale
-4. Excessively
-5. Former VP
-6. Guard
-7. Furrow
-8. World's largest art museum
-9. Shorebird
-10. Lumberjack
-11. Scowl
-12. Rule over by right of authority
-13. Rise up
-14. Small kidney stones
-15. Type of cardigan
-16. Protection for the hands
-17. Fastening tape
-18. Suitors
-19. Temperature of a gas oven
-20. More protracted
-21. Cosmetic company
-22. Plant of the genus trifolium
-23. Velvet-like fabric
-24. Given name of the officer implicated in the Iran-Contra affair


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.
