Harder List

One of my dreams is to be that guy in the nursing home who, when the church youth group comes around to carol and asks if I have any favorites, requests "Once In Royal David's City," just to watch them blanch.  The answers to the first batch are coming up shortly.

From the two lists, I got everything but:

3 POYYHC
14 HHHHH
22 DTTSIAOHOS
44 CSBSDIHS

17 was sneaky.

#3 is similarly sneaky. Had I said "Chanukah/Hannukah songs are included" they would have been too easy. Not saying anything makes them too hard. The answers for that list are now linked at that post.

I thought #14 was going to be easy, but almost no one has gotten it. Everyone wants to go to either Ho Ho Ho or Holy Holy and then gotten stuck there, unable to get those out of their heads.

22 and 44 are difficult in the same way. They are first lines, but the title of the songs are the much more familiar choruses.

Give me enough time (say 20 years...) and I'm sure I'll come up with an excuse as to why I only got 2... maybe 3 of these. No... I'll need multiple excuses. One won't do.

I don't do well with Soduko either. Obviously, I need softer disciplines within which to excel. I once completed an USA Today crossword puzzle in ink while eating breakfast. Does that count?
