An aneurism is one thing I would not want to survive after seeing what that is like three years ago. Poor man, but death may actually be a mercy in this case.

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.

Well, not having one in the first place would be a better mercy.

As if anyone has that option when it happens.

Right.

As much as they have the option of surviving or not.

No. That privilege goes to the doctors and the family. Had that three years ago.

Thanks. I've never seen or heard of a clue where the letter ordering was 1/2 the clue - it was (to me) a novel idea, so I wasn't sure whether it was exceedingly trivial or perverse. Obviously, it was trivial!

I've given it to @Kornfeld Eliyahu Peter as he gave the answer, even though your response came first. Hope that is OK

No that's fine - the winner is the first person to use the word.
I didn't because I set them on Friday and Monday, so I'm giving others a chance.

Ordering has been done before, and it's a good idea. There is a similar famous one: "Gegs (9, 4)" which has the solution SCRAMBLED EGGS (highlight to read the answer).

Phew! Took me a couple of minutes to solve your example, even knowing it was an ordering one.

And then this, from my "sister in the lord"...

Dearest,

This might come to you as a surprise but what I'm about telling you is nothing but the reality about your fund which has been held for so
long with the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Do you know that all the money you have been sending to the officials for one certificate clearance or the other is being used against you?
well this might sound strange but am taking this bold step because of my religious belief as a Christian. The truth is there a lots of
forces working against you right from the last central bank Governor and the current Governor with other top officials of all the
commercial banks in Nigeria,they have been frustrating you by delaying your payment. There is a way I can assist you get your fund without
further delay and avoid unnecessary expenses,it is risky though but one has to take it, I have directed many people through this way,and
they receive their long awaited outstanding payment.

What you have to do is to open a bank account any where you can within your country, it will be nice but you have to bear in mind that you
will re-transfer the fund to another account immediately you confirmed the transfer of the fund from me into your account. I know why I want it this way. If you want me to go ahead, let me know as soon as you get this mail,if the transfer is made into your account this week, it might be next three months that they will find out and by then, you have re-transferred the fund into another account.

Get back to me as soon as you get this mail so that I will be in a better position to know what to do. Waiting for your immediate reply
to this address ( dr.veronica_amadi.JP@outlook.com ).

Yours sister in the lord
Dr.Mrs. Veronica Amadi JP
