Keen Associations
Shake those holiday cobwebs, and sharpen up that gray matter!
In this Keen Associations Puzzle,
for each number below, we've listed three words. These three words, in
some way, relate to a fourth word -- the one you have to guess!
The key phrase is "in some way."
In many cases, the words we've given you form a compound word with the
missing word. But in other cases, there is simply an association with
the given words and the missing one. So go to it and good luck!

Answers to The Puzzle From Our 12/14/04 Issue
It seems you all really liked our Jubilee Jumble Puzzle! Thanks for all your responses!
One
of our readers suggested that because of the differing time zones of
our readers that it might be fairer to take all the correct responses
and then draw from those so that everyone has an equal chance of
winning. We thought this was a great idea, so our lucky winner from the
"correct" pile is Sheri Nielsen of Biddeford, Maine, USA.
Congratulations Sheri!! You will be receiving DreamPack, a $25 value of writer's software!
