In a nutshell. You might be able to make that clue less awkward, though.

My flow is not glowing like phosphorus these days. But you gets wanna criticize, you provide an improved version of the clue.
― James Redd and the Blecchs, Tuesday, 29 January 2008 02:31 (eighteen years ago)
Well, the best I've gotten with it so far is:
To make a long story short, crazy aunt's between Gary's home and the underworld.
Which is maybe better, but not there yet.

doesn't work cause it needs to be crazy aunt is torment, not torment of crazy aunt.

i miss this thread. but unsolved clues should get an extra letter a day, or it just dies.
i remember looking at a list of named winds for that one four months ago. just tried again, still no joy.

is that the cheese chronicle or the fat wind?

edda is a norse mythology (saga), chr for chronicles (common abbrev. used for the book of the bible).
santana, santa + an ('santa ana' the more common rendering)

Yes and yes, thanks.

Ah, thanks. Had been trying to fit "IH" into santa (for one, and hot)unsuccessfully there. Did not know the edda thing, though had considered cheddar as a possible answer.
I do like this thread, and I'm glad it's back.

Yes! OTT in cages. I hate when you stare at these for ages and can't get them, then someone else does and it's really really obvious.
― ailsa, Tuesday, 21 October 2008 13:30 (seventeen years ago)
I thought about cottages yesterday, but I could see how it worked. I still didn't understand the OTT until you just capitalized it.
