discs of metal ,of dubious grade and of questionable value.

8. A Kool Aid Drinker ,with two straws.

9. A structure of rectitude in a world of moral jello

10 A bizarre Stalwart.

13. Cantankerous and jejune.

14. The mephistophilis of coins.

15. A collector, "running on bald, underinflated,
retread tires, down the road of life."

16. Are you the one, who flew over the Cuckoos nest?

17. Clueless in Seattle?
