Since I was on vacation, and didn't have an easy way to upload a new puzzle, I ran this one for two weeks. Thinking that some people may wonder why the puzzle wasn't changed, I wanted to let everyone know the I would return with a new one. So I made a puzzle out of the famous movie phrase: "I'll be back." Some people thought that the hint was emphasizing the "space between us" and that deserved an honorable mention. But the hint as I intended it was pointing to nothing. Now, if you happen to know any astro-physics major (like I do), they will tell you that space is full of stuff and it's not "nothing". The correct answer is "There's nothing between us." What do you think? Do you think that is too narrow and I should let "space between Hopefully you could see that the words "Sweet Dreams" were filled with the word "This" repeatedly. Once you caught that, then the only thing left was to figure out what it meant. This time it was a song title - "Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This" by the Eurythmics. Words within words are pretty easy to come up with, so keep looking for the hidden words. Sort of like "Hidden in plain si Two weeks with no winners. This puzzle was really hard. So, my thought process was like this: On the left side, all of the multiplication or TIMES problems were correct. It couldn't get any better. In fact, you could say "It was the best of times." Do I need to explain the right side? The famous literary quote is from "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens. In fact, that whole first paragraph has some good "What in the World" puzzles hiding in it. The animation shows "the word" going from compact normal print to a spread out style. So, the correct answer to the puzzle is also my wish. I hope that you spread the word to all your friends about this website and weekly puzzle. We've been stuck at 16 likes for quite some time now. I'm hoping we can build that up.
