Are You Kamphey Approved?

A slight bend in the road as I delve into tell you my dear reader to go do something TONIGHT! Yes that’s right, I am hoping that this post finds you well and unevented tonight.  And I hope that after this brief, I will try to be brief, discussion with myself that you will read, will join me and hundreds more to go see a documentary.  Which one?  the one in the title of course. I.O.U.S.A. It’s playing in theaters tonight and I think for at least a few days but why tonight? why should I and you or we or us go tonight? because there will also be a live discussion with some people… who? does it matter? it’s not your mother or your brother just jabbering over dinner about the “state of the economy.” Well maybe if your brother is Warren Buffett and in case your mother would be his mother too and you would already know he is talking tonight live.

But you say, I can just watch it on youtube or something if I hear anything good about it?  I swear it will be good. Take my word for it.  why?  Because the director of this documentary that is playing tonight is also the director of my favorite documentary to date.  Wordplay.

Oh. I see.  But isn’t Wordplay about crossword puzzles, and Mr. Kamphey, you do crossword puzzles.  yes I do and I like them even if I’m no good but I used to not do crossword puzzles.  I fell in love with crossword puzzles after watching Wordplay.  Wordplay isn’t really about crossword puzzles it’s about the people.  The human beings who are head over heels for puzzles, any kind of puzzles because they take chaos and find similarities within that chaos that brings to light a new perspective on the world.   I created the puzzle at the end of this post just in my spare time in L.A. It gave me something to do and worked a muscle in my brain.  It brings together two different words that would have never been together lest they have this odd similarity.

That last sentence and most of that last paragraph didn’t make any sense.  I know this.  I’m getting very excited about this movie tonight and I had a lot of coffee this afternoon.  I’m excited to get to typing out the puzzle that I mentioned that will be at the end of this post for those who want something out of this post even if they don’t go see the documentary tonight and/or if they read this post about two weeks after I post it.

Alright so please go on.  Yes so the documentary tonight, I swear, will not be about “the economy.” It will be about the people affected and affecting.  I think you’ll get something out of going to see it.  It’s a special event, I think the planners had that in mind, that won’t really ever happen again but I’d love to see more like it.  I feel like I’m back in the 1940’s and going to the movie theater to also watch the news, like a newsreel.  It’s like an old timey thing that has been brought into modern times and uses the never old fashioned sense of humanity.  What is so special about humans and why should we care?  I sense this post getting out of hand.  let’s get to a puzzle.

So this puzzle might be easy, might be hard.  get on with it.  okay.  The answers to the clues will be a two word phrase with the first word starting with a B and the second word being the same word as the first except without a B but sounded out the same.  Example:  A simpson’s paintings would be Bart’s Arts

Get it?  got it. so let’s go:

1. What a savings account person would use to stay in place.

2.  A bird barely makes it.

3.  When a dog makes a noise it also pukes.

4.  A diner that only serves punches.

5.  A tea party revolutionary in Texas.

6.  When diver’s aren’t sick anymore.

7.  A tennis pro’s bodies of water.

8.  A sum done wrong.

9.  A pain from using the oven.

10.  A rich simpson’s character’s fancy vases

This is pushing it a bit:

11.  Obama’s store for sedimenatry or lime or moon artifacts

ummm.. answers?  If you want the answers then ask for them and I will post them as a comment on here or I’ll just email them to you which ever is easiest for me at the time of you asking me for them.  I think if you come up with an answer any answer for them, that’s awesome!
