sandstorm 5

oh boay

not capitalized, so i don't think i'll be looking for the darude - sandstorm meme, but maybe it's a good idea to put that on in the background while i go through this

not any super obvious music related words anyway at first glance

i guess i'm never not saying pyramid and scorpion

both blue

satellite seems like the word that makes this clue specifically sandstorm (weather, etc)

i guess rose (rise) could be that too

hmmm

Chick - don't see it
Contract - technically would contract at some point
Diamond - maybe?
Fighter - decent connection re: wars/middle east
Foot - would suck to be walking in one
Ghost - don't see it
Platypus - don't see it
Rose - a sandstorm rises, but that's a hard thing to see
Satellite - weather
Slug - another war word
Sock - don't see it
Spot - unlikely
Star - don't see it

satellite jumped out the most to me, gotta go for it

Satellite is blue

sweet

starting to come up with super loose connections (which obv may be needed)

like star > sun > desert

spot > jupiter > storm (but it's def not sand)

i think i just need to stick with fighter as the most direct

the suspense!

unfortunately i have no favorite here at all atm

liking spot a bit more

not the jupiter thing, but more like a location where the storm is

plus i'm thinking of sandstorm vs sandstorms as the clue

alright, going with my gut

hasn't failed me yet (this round, at least)

spot

Spot is...

gonna be more sad if it was diamond, was talking myself into that too

I was going to go Commonwealth 3 instead of British 3, but if you are not from Canada, Australia or Britain it probably doesn't work. If D1iab (from Australia)was guessing i would go Commonwealth 4 to get platypus...

D1iab's recipe 3 clue was great, considering it took away his file/contract problem.

genetic 4 was a late thought. I went for it when I realized that after you picked cell and disease, there was nothing really bad that could happen...there was nothing else to pick other than giant and dwarf...

sandstorm 5. The clue was great and insanity's dissection of it was awesome.. That was scary close.

for foot and platypus I worried that webbed 2 might get platypus and chick, even though chickens/poultry don't really have webbed feet..well, a little bit maybe.

Flipper 2 I was worried that there was a show (and maybe a movie) where Flipper was the "star". So I went lowercase flippers in case that got into Prip's head.

two ggs by all...
