I appreciate the kind words. It is probably just me,
but being ignored periodically gave me that feeling.
Knowing you think that way make's my New Years.
Top Poster? Where is that found?

***
I hardly ever looked over on that side of the screen.
For awhile I welcomed all the Newest Members, but when
I never saw them on the forum, I figured they were just
spiders or guests or something I did not understand.
I must really be getting "mouthy" to have that many posts.
Especially in 30 days. Of course most of them are
either "welcomes" probably, or posts on the Scrabble
game, or anagrams. Thanks for pointing that out. But
your words mean more, believe me. Happy New Year.

Thanks Wofa...for explanation and examples.

Re FAME...yes that is one, but one of the 10 you found already.

And the movies like Speed + Taxi, are just coincidences......all the 12 I have hidden are musical either on stage or in movies.

to recapitulate :

I had a vague recollection of having heard my friend, Olivera Markwick, speak of a hair-raising ordeal she had once while driving a taxicab. A retired doctor from the infirmary, popp in shortly after a lunatic had escaped from custody and held several patients hostage. The psychic, a goliath of a man, thought he was bulletproof. American police quickly evacuated the west side. Story-lines in the papers were full of how the assassin gin' in the raincoat had been captured. Much praise went to, my friend but she said she did little, the chummy, fair ladykiller had calmly flagged down the taxi and got in the back seat, she recognised him straight away from the pictures broadcast hourly on the TV. As the sound of death metal music blared from the speakers, she devised a plan and speed away, breaking as many traffic laws as possible, hoping to get the right attention, while seemingly doing as the yeggman ordered. Now she was able to breathe a sigh of relief as Super, WI Zardo Fozzil, locked the handcuffs on the hapless captive, ratcheting them tighter to insure escape this time was impossible. And she felt like a vigintillion king after getting the reward.[/color]

contains "...The psychic, a goliath of a man..."

Now for that pesky last one...

Thats it Bex....and I thought The Sound of Music would be the easiest to find....thats why I took the liberty of separating it between another word. To me, it still stood out.

But the prize goes to.......>>>>> Wofahulicodoc
Congratulation Wofa, on your persistence and exuberant work!

(I am participially proud of how I integrated Chicago into the mix)
