Are the Writers reading the "How to Anger Contestants and Save the Show Money" Book or something?? LOL Like Rocks12345 I also had the puzzle solved after RSTLNE, but that was absolutely cruel because unless you're a green thumb or have a HUGE vocabulary there's really no way to pull it out. Guess that's why "Living Thing" can be such a tricky one to nail because it encompasses EVERYTHING living.
