How to Play:
Each entry comes with a +/- clue and a missing +/- letter in parentheses at the beginning or ending of the series of blank spaces. Using the +/- clue as a solving aid, fill in the blanks and the missing +/- letter will reveal either a longer / shorter common word, or a longer / shorter well-known person's last name.
Example: (common words)
➤ Legal +/- Terrible =
( ___ ) ___ ___ ___ ___ ___
[The missing +/- letter is "L"; the answer to the clue is “(L)AWFUL", with “LAWFUL” being the + answer to the clue “Legal”, and “AWFUL” being the - answer to the clue “Terrible”.]
