Yeah, sure. You all complain that the ScuttleButton puzzles have been too easy. So what happens when I try to make it a bit more difficult? A drastic drop-off in guesses.
Easy or difficult, the rules remain the same. In order to solve the rebus, you need to take one word or one concept per button to arrive at a saying or a name.
The buttons:
"Keep the Faith Baby" with a photo of Adam Clayton Powell -- a favorite slogan of Powell, the legendary New York congressman.
I'm Voting For Hamilton Fish Jr. -- an upstate New York Republican congressman who served on the House Judiciary Committee during the Nixon impeachment hearings.
Caricature of man with tape over his mouth -- actually, this is Mark Plotkin, once a political commentator for D.C. public radio station WAMU (now with commercial station WTOP); the theme behind the button is that Plotkin likes to talk too much.
Anyway, the answer: Baby Fish Mouth! -- the memorable (to some!) line from Bruno Kirby during the charades scene in When Harry Met Sally. In case this classic scene escapes you, here it is.
The winner, selected at random among the correct responders, is (drum roll) ... Susan Daigle-Leach of Prescott, Ariz.
