As I finished the apple and got a few of the numbers, I got the homophone...or should I say "homogroan"

I got most of the right side first, and was expecting the left side to show a rain coat.

A rain coat? hmmm I must be more tired that I thought, I can't figure how an apple and a rain coat would be homophones??

Oh - Macintosh/Mcintosh!

I saw a T-shirt in a catalog today with the slogan "A pun at maturity is fully groan." Seems fitting! I love puns, good or bad. I second #6, I can't see how an apple and a raincoat could be homophones either. Jan, please enlighten us!

Oh, I get it now! Teresa, we must have been typing at the same time, LOL. It's midnight here in the midwest, so I should stop with the puzzles, as much as I can't wait to see what's in #4 and #5!
