      TIL 5A! "quote for goat" was indeed very sneaky

        Hehe it took me a long time to get the right phrase for that :)

        Thanks for the puzz! Can you explain 1A to me?
        • bob weisz constructor · 2024-03-14T00:38:43.521Z
          Thanks for the solve! "both hands" is L and R (as in Left and Right), and "a bird" is EMU.
