I just love these little 'icons' Russ has set up on this website. LOL! Ha! Ha!

I'll let you in on a 'little secret', Bex girl, I also thought that #8 was DOG. Thereby being, HOT / DOG / FORCE .

Sorry to say that is INcorrect. You know, maybe the Police do have what they call a 'dog force'. hmmmmmmm. So perhaps we should accept that one?? WSY? Actually when you find out what the puzzle book has, you'll say 'of course, I should have guessed that one!' So, let's just say, in case no one else offers the Puzzle book's reply, that DOG is acceptable? OK?

Bex, you and Denis both are from another Country, therefore it is understandable that perhaps our English words/sayings may not be understood or used where you live.

Let's see if Denis comes up with something else for #2, 8, 9 . Then we can maybe 'wind this thing down', and concentrate on his other post. Actually I haven't even read it yet. I see that Lynn replied so maybe it's already answered. I'll go check it out now. Thank you, Denis and Bex!

Have a blessed evening, in our Lord.
Blessings, Abishag <><
Hey Bex! I just now hopped over to Denis' question/Riddle. Have you checked it out yet? It's "The Elevator". He is just so
