The answers are:
WALNUTSSEMICOLON
economical-lawsuit
(from a thrifty attorney)
ECONOMICAL – LAWSUIT also, Steph. Only I thought it might be an oxymoron.
LOL
It was too oxymoronic for me,
so I went with UNECONOMICAL -LAWSUIT.
I also had UNECONOMICAL LAWSUIT
LAWSUIT TONEMIC is a 14/2,
and for the New Year, COLUMN NEW WAIST TIME.
WALNUTS – SEMIOTIC 15/2. Words I went through included various MULTI-, -NOMICALS, LAWSUIT, MESONIC, MASONIC, INCOMES, SITCOM, STONE, CLAUSE, CLOSET, UNSOCIAL, EUSOCIAL, SUITCASE, COLUMNS, ALUNITES, CUSTOM, COSTUME, ALUMIN(I)UM, ALUMNI, ALUMINE, etc.
I’m not sure 2023 is done ringing in around the globe but, with the possible exception of the South Pacific (where I’d be delighted to find out someone posts from), I believe I’m in time to send out my best wishes to all!
This one took a while: UNLAWS – SEMIOTIC. Can’t believe I didn’t see WALNUTS. 🙄 Happy New Year to all!
All the best to you & yours, DW! Equally, I regret missing out on UNLAWS (as I remain an ardent fan of efficiency). That said, I -by default- deploy UNs, UPs & REs as sparingly as I can, because they tend to form words I often find non-sensical.
I confess UNLAWS was a new word for me today. One of the things I like best about this game is it expands my vocabulary! Happy New Year to you, Sota!
newtons – simulcast
NEWTONS – SIMULCAST here as well. Betting that there are lots of alternates today. Happy New Year!
Simulcast is a great find, Robin!
I spotted Walnut(s) right off but couldn’t manage to pair it. Sad. Columnists and Locutions, and Lawmen and Inlaws, and Ecumenical and Encomium and many others looked so promising, but nothing doing. Finally settled for Economical Lawsuit, which has thematic charms, at least.
Happy 2023 to All!
May all your lawsuits be economical, Bernie! Happy New Year!
swam – multisection –A bit long, but I’m willing to settle for any answer at this point.
ALTOCUMULUS SUNWISE
I’m fairly certain I went over Bernie’s self imposed time limit today…….
But when the ALTOCUMULUS finally turn SUNWISE the sun does actually shine on a dog’s ass one time a day and even the blind hog gets an acorn now and then. Happy new year it’s bedtime for bonzo.
That’s sure to be a one-off, Bobby, highly inventive. Happy New Year!
I love this solution! Just looked up sunwise,
which has connotations of prosperity.
Happy New Year to all!
It never fails to brighten my day when I get an attaboy from Bernie. I know I’m not alone in considering him the grand poobah of this site. He is a mentor to me without even being aware of it. But to hear from the resident poet laureate as well sure energizes me going into the new year. I truly admire the both of you. My life is otherwise untouched by social media but I just cannot imagine such brilliance being on daily display in other venues. It brought to mind a couple lines from a personal hero of mine and luckily for me they have been stuck in my head all day, it
“REMINDS ME OF A CHESS GAME
WITH SOMEONE I ADMIRE
OR A PICNIC IN THE RAIN
AFTER A PRAIRIE FIRE.”
Bobby, you are too kind. Thanks for the ego-boost l, from someone whose spouse – who won’t even try Letterboxed or Spelling Bee! – keeps beating them at Wordle. But I can’t let this pass without a nod to Sota21, another hero of this space along with our home-grown Homer, Jill.
Thanks also for mentioning John Prine’s seasonal fave Christmas in Prison. I often find excellent musical signposts to follow here!
Customals – swine. How did customals work? Is that even a word? I was bummed Masonic was not accepted. I Leo couldn’t find a solution with COALMINES
Typo “leo”
COASTWISE-ECUMENICAL 🌴⛪️ 🙏🏻tropical church movements
LOCUTIONS—SWAM, after failing to connect MUCOSAL and INCLUSION
oops! Just realized I neglected the ‘E’!
Will report later . . .
okay, I’m sure I did it this time: COASTWISE—ECUMENICAL
(geez, it’s a lot harder to do this after you’ve read other solutions)
LAWSUIT-TONEMIC
lawsuits – socioeconomic
It didn’t work for an answer, but it did allow AWESOMESAUCE.
