One coil of a python hanging from a branch.
A Christmas wreath hanging on the door. Time to take it down, perhaps.
A tourist has just arrived in Hawaii, and is watching (with a certain degree of concern) the stick insect crawling out of his lei.
It's time to clean the toilet.
hahahaha! now I totally see a poopy toilet...maybe Destyny can potty train Daddy ;)#4: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Mar 3, 2013 [SPOILER]
Rofl,yes I see the poopy toilet too,it looks like daddy may have plugged the toilet,forget cleaning,it's time for a plumber.lol.:)#5: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Mar 3, 2013 [SPOILER]
Watch out for that huge mosquito that's zeroing in.#6: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Mar 3, 2013
The bottom of a horse's hoof that has walked in poopy stuff.
Lol,funny stuff Norma.:)#7: Tom King (sgusa) on Mar 3, 2013 [SPOILER]
A baby in utero or a sea slug?#8: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Mar 3, 2013

Love solves like this one! And interesting image of...#12: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Nov 30, 2025 [HINT]
an elephant trunk (with a bit of head costume dangling down) holding a stick?
a heart on a round surgical tray?
if i tilt my head to the right it looks like toto is about to run along the yellow brick road and the cowardly lion is photobombing :)
i can't remember if in this series alege ever says what the intention(s) was/were?
The site says the puzzle can be solved with line logic alone, but I am stuck at only 4%. Any advice? Thanks!#13: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 30, 2025 [HINT]
Valerie, I used edge logic to place the 11s, and I'm at 44% so far.#14: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 30, 2025 [HINT]
Edit: When you get the 2 squares in C1, the 4 clue in C2 can't be at the bottom, because the 3 clue wouldn't work with the 11 and the horizontal clues. This already looks like more lookahead, though.
oh, wait. That isn't LLS. Drat.#15: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Dec 1, 2025 [HINT]
I think the move that will help you, Valerie, is that C2R15 will be a dot whether it has the 4 or 3 above it :)#16: Valerie Mates (valerie) on Dec 2, 2025 [HINT]
That was exactly what I needed to get going again and solve it with only line logic. Thanks David!#17: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Dec 2, 2025
I will say that i am STILL amazed at how Al so consistently made puzzles with enjoyable solves with fun line logic like that to find. I know he used the checker to make sure they were LL solvable, but for someone who never test-solved any of his own puzzles, the line logic that resulted was nearly always top notch!
