Conundrum: Picnic
Tuesday, January 30th, 2007Another new weekly feature, which means that you can now waste valuable work time at Shakespeare Teacher five days a week!
This week, I’m having a picnic. I’m putting together my guest list based on one simple rule.
- I’m inviting DANTE, but not PETRARCH.
- I’m inviting GALILEO, but not COPERNICUS.
- I’m inviting REMBRANDT, but not PICASSO.
- I’m inviting NAPOLEON, but not ROBESPIERRE.
- I’m inviting PENN, but not TELLER.
- I’m inviting KERMIT THE FROG, but not MISS PIGGY.
- I’m inviting QUEEN ELIZABETH II, but not PRESIDENT BUSH.
- I’m inviting LAVERNE & SHIRLEY, but not CAGNEY & LACEY.
Have you figured out the rule? If so, please don’t post it. Just post one or two additions to the list to show us you got it, and to give an extra hint to later solvers.
UPDATE: The solution is now posted in the comments.
