Stonehenge Puzzle #5

It's the vernal equinox, or close enough, so that means it's time for Stonehenge Puzzle #5. Discuss!

Spoiler:
Stonehenge is really just a bunch of rocks.

Also, note our nifty new [spoiler] tag! Feel free to use it. :-)


Hmm...

HMM...

A thirteen character URL address but fourteen spaces are lit up on the blanks below.

The word count of the CAPPED words is different than the 167 blanks below.

Nothing yet. Just going to stare at it until something jumps out at me. Check back in a year to make sure I'm still breathing.

Turns out it's easier to solve the puzzle when it's not broken!

Mike Selinker pointed out several things that I need to fix.... which I'm doing right now. I'll post again when the puzzle is correct.

Edit: I think I've fixed the puzzle now. One line was missing, and a couple others had the wrong number of spaces.

Also, Mike is evil.


Any chance we could get a PDF file like we got for Puzzle #3? I tried printing the web page but the white underscores didn't print.

It is all fixed (thanks, Gary!), and I'm not evil, I'm just drawn that way.

Mike.

So, I decided to hit the boards to DL the puzzle...

Here's my thought

Granola by any other name is... Well, ask Andy.


Spoiler:
Guesses:
Morgan le Fay? (not sure which clue)
#13: Raistlin?
#15: King Solomon?

Should the line with 4/3/9 blanks be 3/3/9 instead?
Should the line with 7/9 blanks be 6/9 instead?

Spoiler:
I shall sing like a LARK, eat a REUBEN sandwich, and swear an OATH.

On the solution page the title of the "littleBeardy.jpg" image has the wrong puzzle number.

Whoah, LurkerBeneath, you are good. I will defer to Mike S. (who is evil based on his puzzles alone, not on any particular character traits) as to whether or not the puzzle as presented is correct, but I will fix the ID on the answer page tomorrow.


Ack, he got it already?!

I haven't begun to strip this thing down.

WTG, LB!

I must be blind, because it looks right to me. I've fixed a couple of other minor issues with the answer page.


It looks OK now. Maybe someone else fixed it while we weren't looking.

Darn it, I can't count. Yes, those two lines should be fixed:

*The third line should start with three blanks, not four.
*The tenth line should start with six blanks, not seven.

Gary, please update these. Thanks much.

And Lurker, nice spoiler.

Sadly, the best I can manage is to:

Spoiler:
EVAC my compatriots before declaring WAR on my enemies, and then celebrate my newly raised rock by eating an entire bag of tasty, tasty crab-flavored potato chips from UTZ.


Surely you could

Spoiler:
crush some poison IVY, add milk from a COW, and spread the mixture on a RITZ cracker.

Mike told me the answer to this puzzle, and I still have no idea what you guys are talking about.

I suck at puzzles.

Spoiler:
Maybe I could, if I could only remember when Y is or isn't. SOMETIMES? Make up your mind, Y—either get in the pool or get out, dammit! (In this case, I think it actually is, so I could...)
...but I'll take a celebratory crab-flavored chip over an ivy-tainted cracker any day.
