Ground See Page

Mr. Froth and I continue to do crossword puzzles. With mixed results. I'm this close to giving him a noogie on his bald  part.

It's not even a nasty crossword-just a medium (renamed from easy, I think) in a book.

The clue as given by him was "ground see page." Spoken as if it contained three words. He even spelled it.

No. It was "ground seepage," which is easily figured out. I, however, was thinking "like a "see page" in a book? A clue? A hint? Maybe track or trail or spoor?"

No. It was "ooze." Which any normal non discombobulated person would arrive at if the clue giver spoke English.

  1. I usually lock an idea in my head -- and many times it is the wrong idea -- and run with it....and end up, well -- seeing a page.

    I understand the frustration.

  4. Why do you even use a word like "normal"?

  5. I suffer from "ooze" on my brain and I mention a "bald spot" in my last post
