Tim,

Here's some for you to place on any NeXTs in the world trade center, or for any Chicagoans on the list, how about on those "infamous" stock/commodity trading NeXTs (Phibro?)
Stay tuned for more mayhem from those late-night workers at CX5, the same ones that have no respect for virtual reality.

Subject: What A Blast

Here's a string of mix & match icons (with serving suggestions) 
that have been rolling around my shelf and threatening to detonate
if not posted.  Now seems the appropriate opportunity ...

               bomb1.tiff             bomb2.tiff              bomblast.tiff
                 ( .dir  )            ( .dir or .open  )           ( .open  )

 ... as well as an eggs-cuse to post the "Riddle Results".

I started writing this and it was getting real long in the tooth (not that
it isn't still).  What it all boils down to is this - it was a BLAST - great fun
and more responses than I would have guessed.  And I learned a few 
new things to boot; not the least of which is - "You gotta get up prit-tee
early (Universal Time) to stump the list."  Thanks for all the great
responses.

There have been eggs-actly 50 responses up to this moment.  Many
clever, many witty and all correct; not a BOMB in the batch.  Some
thought it was too easy.  Hey gang, I'm sure I'm not the only one that
can think up a puzzle to go with an icon posting.

All right, so cut the gab and get to it.  Everyone is just BURSTING with
anticipation, right?  

I know there was some inequity in this deal.  I wouldn't have had a
chance.  The posting dropped into my own mailbox long after the first
responses.  I was probably asleep when it did.  So what to do?
 
Ok, how's this for this time around?  - Everybody wins !  We'll do
Gold Egg, Silver Egg and Bronze Egg based on the "postmark's"
Universal Time with all runners up (those with a postmark prior to this
posting) getting something too (such at deal).  I'm not quite sure what
that' will be yet, but give me a couple of days. 

First, Second and Third Place winners have been notified and are
announced with permission.

GOLD  		goes to Gideon King    		Tues 20:37:01 UT
SILVER 		goes to Andrew Bernstein  	Tues 20:57:16 UT
BRONZE 	goes to Raymond N. Zych, Jr.  	Tues 20:57:25 UT 
										( Whoa ... close! )

Let's do it again sometime.  "Give it a go mate" - as they say in
New Zealand; right Gideon ?

Phew, gotta go,  I'm not on overtime.
