Well you may want to check your compass because you are way off course.

This week's theme is really obvious. Okay, I'll try setting one tomorrow.
Charon. Satellite to Pluto, and the rower over the river Styx.
|
|
|
|
|
Correct. Good luck with tomorrow.
I agree, the whole moon theme does seem to limit the possibilities quite dramatically. I suppose I could have been more creative and used moon for the clue, rather than the answer though...

Thanks.
It was a good clue, just the relation with mythology stands out to me.
|
|

Yeah, seems quite a lot of space stuff takes it's name from Greek mythology.

It's just suspicious that several of Saturm's moons, like Thetys, Iapetus or Mimas have huge craters that make them look like the Death Star.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

It's a double definition clue.
You have Charon the moon[^], and you have Charon the ferryman[^], who in Greek mythology would accept payment in return for passage for the dead across the river Styx. Some sources claim that this payment would be in the form of a silver coin (or two).

And, I did, but the flashbacks to memories of my ex-wife came howling back
Not saying I blame that on Kent, though.

For what exactly was she a reference? This could be material for my book 'Living a happy life by avoiding PTSD', Chapter 1, 'Women'.

@Kent-Sharkey should receive your thanks

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

And thank you! for letting me know about this (but I always read stuff from Bill. It opens my mind.)

you're going to hate my newest resolution to write all my control statements as haikus.

love this!
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

I think you should have your own forum here on CP; what do you think about "Stream of Codeiousness" as a title ?
cheers, your admirer, Bill

We can petition Chris. I'll make sure you get some of the royalties.
