Subject: Way off topic... Help!!! Need some of your grey matter input...

Every week a small newspaper my DH subscribes to has a contest called The Bar Exam and you need to solve the questions to win! This week DH and I have managed to come up with 19 of 20 and we are totally stumped, even my proverbial googling hasn't turned up anything! WE HAVE ALL OF THEM BUT NUMBER 6, sooooooo if you could assist us with just # 6... we'd be grateful! ;-) CM2

4-Letter OO's answers may only have 4 letters and the oo's must be located in the middle of the word!

Ready for the exam?
1. you put your best foot forward _oo_ (answer foot) got the idea?
2. once in a blue one.
3. sometimes it's for a thought.
4. as a cucumber.
5. goes along with the line and sinker.

6. Gibson.

7. sometimes you get knocked for one.
8. Hill, a cemetery in the old West.
9. he flew it.
10. crazy as one.
11. something you knock on other than a door.
12. Fruit of the ....
13. sometimes you raise it.
14. sometimes you lower it.
15. one's own horn.
16. something you can throw at him.
17. it's all this and a yard wide.
18. his money and he are soon parted.
19. the place from which you keep the wolf.
20. it's an ill wind that blow nobody this.

Oh Deb,
I knew, I'd hear some wisecracks but not from you,
Course, there's always Jazbo and now, Mosaic's back, too!
I'm afraid your monkey theory simply won't work,
It has to proceed Gibson, so I'll say, no thanks with a smirk!
;-) CM2

Had Hubby look at it and the first thing he said was Hoot Gibson. Not telling my age, because he is older than me. HEHEHE :>).

Oh Willow and Janice ... you, two are awesome... that answers sounds like a winner! Now we better get the sheet filled out and submitted! If more than one entry has the correct answers then the winner is selected by a random drawing! Nice restaurant gift certificate for this week's edition ... oh to be so lucky ... if you win you still have to break the bank to pay the difference! Thanks, again! :-) CM2

Well, I wasn't going to do this, but I'm afraid the temptation's too great. There was an old fellow down the street from us, quite a talker and character. Everytime my Dad would see him coming he'd say "Poot, Gibson"
So there ya go, that's my best guess.

Oh man! I was too late,
to have fun, & to join in.
My thought was a drink,
with vermouth, onions & gin.

I believe Hoot is the correct answer. He was an old time western, cowboy, probably in the silent movie era.

Hope this helps

It could be Gibson Girl. There was a famous artist (Charles Gibson) who painted pictures of ladies. They were called the Gibson Girls. Hugs, katieangelamber
