The five clue words are derived from an answer word that’s made up of at least eight letters, none of which is repeated. The letters of each clue word appear in the answer word in left-to-right order, though, not necessarily consecutively. For example: the letters in Colt can be found in Complexity, as can the letters in Comply, Exit, Met and Pity. Every letter of the answer appears at least once in the clue words, and one clue word in each set appears in the answer intact (Exit in the example). As has become traditional, win bonus points and the admiration of your peers for using all five clues and the answer in a suitable sentence. -1. rut, gal, fit, ray, fry -2. the, oral, item, sea, era -3. bot, sin, bow, rig, own -4. cut, auto, pin, eat, rec -5. cent, ache, met, arc, pen -6. tea, say, until, tad, nail -7. day, icy, dip, lay, dom -8. moat, nit, mar, his, chit -9. lid, mug, tie, mire, rad -10. son, met, shin, omen, sing
The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.

manxman, that's the way to start us off! Flo, I'm not seeing anything like what you describe. Do you mean in this thread?

7. diplomacy (day, icy, dip, lay, dom) When the DOM went for an ICY DIP in the Potomac River and then LAY naked on the shore, that's the DAY his DIPLOMACY flew the coop. Flo, I'm not seeing anything like that either.
Wouldn't that jar your mustard!

OK, thanks. Yes it is in every thread actually. It's has to be something that has been added to Internet Explorer because I don't have it on Google Chrome. I'll see if I can find it because it pops up on every page I go to, not only here.
I found it and deleted it. They also had it installed twice, second time the name was scrambled to look like something you wouldn't want to delete, just in case. However, being a gameboomer, I figured it out and deleted it.
Problem solved.

Jema, a colorful story. Lex, good solve! Flo, you rock! Good work!

Belated embellishment for #1; SUN RAY FRY GAL: she have FIT and fall in RUT. (Various less suitable ones occurred to me about being in rut).

8. Crossing the MOAT, the MONARCHIST, called in HIS CHIT for an invitation to the county fair from his anarchist friend, determined that this time he would not allow his friend to MAR the festivities.
Bob As I've grown older, I've found that my memory is not as good as I used to think it was.

4. Try not to EAT while working on your AUTO in the REC room however a good tip would be to use a cotter PIN to open sardine cans that have broken keys and thereby taking a PRECAUTION to avoid a nasty CUT.
Did you ever stop to think and then forget to start again?
