Non-lacrosse specific topics.

Postby Gregg Pathiakis on Mon Jan 30, 2006 1:19 am

Since I liked this thread so much, thought I'd keep it going. I get a daily brain teaser in my e-mail, but most of them are stupid. I'll try and post the good (or somewhat good like this one) ones.

Using real names to make common words, name the offspring: (the first one is free!)

1. Mr and Mrs Voyant - Clare (as in Clairvoyant)
2. Mr and Mrs Tress
3. Mr and Mrs Nasium
4. Mr and Mrs Tate
5. Mr and Mrs Anthemum
6. Mr and Mrs Mander
7. Mr and Mrs Mite
8. Mr and Mrs Time
