Sides of this Letter Box are:
TYISPRBMGAOH
The answers are:
BIGAMISTTROPHY
BIGAMIST – TROPHY
BIGAMIST – TOPOGRAPHY
BIGAMIST – TOMOGRAPHY
Take your pick.
Also BRIGHTS – SYMPOSIA
BIGAMIST—TOPOGRAPHY for me. Wish I’d seen TROPHY though!
Same, bigamist topography
BIOGRAPHS SYMPATHY very fast. Found SYMPATHY first.
Same.
BIOGRAPHS STORMY to add to that
and BIOGRAPHISTS STORMY
Biographist Trampy
Same here, biographist trampy.
Full Disclosure, this was my first answer. But it felt ‘TI’resome.
RE:DHW
Same here. Seems topical.
Same
biographs – stormy
This was my answer as well. But it did take a few minutes.
BIOGRAPHISTS – SYMPATHY
TI: Authors try to make their subjects relatable!
Me too. Good theme for it.
Me three. 😄
Same here in less than 10 minutes 🍻
Also…
Biographist – Trampy
My very inefficient solve as well.
Glad it was a relatively quick solve day! 😃

Hey, PGGIE,
Wrong Spelling! Or I guess it’s a typo!
🤔
☢️🌹
Stealing PG’s answer without the o…maneuver. 🥰
Hey, Sir David,
Gotcha! Maneuver, indeed! Yay! 👍🤗
☢️🌹
Maneuver for me to.
Hey, LWMMM,
Yay!!! You got it too! Good job! 👍🤓
☢️🌹
OBOIST – TOMOGRAPHY
Arborist – Tomography
Bogarts Shrimpy – hogging that roach
Jinx!
Me too (and I like your definition)
I love this one!
Is there room for a:
TRAMPISH—HIGHBOY
😉
Good on you Mark! I was looking for a pairing to HIGHBOY, but settled on BOGARTS – SHRIMPY instead.
Trampish-highboy for me!
Ha! Bring it in Mark, everyone is welcome! Just keep your drawers closed!
Bogarts shrimpy
Me three!
He had a large persona in the movies, but the story is he was not actually very tall.
BYPATH – HISTOGRAM
Ditto…
BYPATH / HISTOGRAM too!
Same for me, though I wasn’t really familiar with the word BYPATH. I also played around with HISTOGRAPH(Y) and even the unnecessarily inefficient HISTORIOGRAPHY for a while.
BYPATH — HISTOGRAM
Bigamists sophistry
BIOGRAMS** – SOPHISTRY
** = my way of indicating a word that is neither LB-sanctioned nor a PSW, but a word nonetheless.
(also managed BIOGRAPHISTS–STOMPY)
BIOGRAPHS – STOMPY
BORGATAS – SHRIMPY
OA That was quick, for a mercy.
BIGAMIST – TROPHY
Pair-shaped.
😃🫵
Love it!
Does this site takes time to load today? Or my internet connection is just slow?
The site is probably a little woozy. I was having all kindsof troubleearlie r.
Still not great!
I’ve finally caught up enough to solve and post the day of, Yay! Found the OA right out of the (letter)box and quit looking. I didn’t know there was an award for that.
I’m surprised and delighted by the many alternative solutions. Great work!
15/2.BIOGRAPHS STORMY
Last week’s news.
Bima Astrography. Ha, I learned a new word today!
Nice!
Thanks! Graphy was just a gift and Astro was obvious enough. Bima was pure chance 🙂
bigamists – sophistry
Birthrights – Symposia
OA.
But before that I was thinking what would I do with that “Y” and then I remembered the good ole Yam. So my first solve was 4-word:
STRIPY YAMS SOBS SIGHS
– the grammar isn’t perfect, but you get the idea.
Then I tried to get a 2-word solution that turns on “Y”.
I got:
STRABOTOMY* YPIGHT*
more later ….
BIOGRAPHIST–THYMY
Same here.
Thymy; that’s clever!
I would have given up for want of an e.
BIOGRAPHS -STORMY
AMPHIBIA*—ASTROGRAPHY
Frogs on a pond looking at the night sky.
🐸💫
Bypath Histogram
Brights-Symposia
BIGAMIST TOPOGRAPHY
Lie of the land.
Biographs Stormy
BIOGRAPHISTS – SYMPATHY, and it took so long to find I didn’t bother looking for a way to shorten it down. 😮💨
Wanted HIGHBOYS but found BIOGRAPHISTS STORMY
MISBIRTH – HISTORIOGRAPHY
Wildly inefficient, but historiography was probably the longest word I have ever found, so I had to find a match for it.
