PUZZLERIA! SLICES: OVER (1110 + 98) SERVED

Welcome to our April 13th edition of Joseph Young’s Puzzleria!
Note: This week’s “I’ve a Question About 5 Questions” Appetizer is a modified “two-week creative challenge” similar to the sort Will Shortz periodically presents on The Puzzle during NPR’s Weekend Edition Sunday program. It is, in my opinion, the best puzzle I have ever composed... so I want to give you fortnight to savor it. I have been working on it for more than a year.

Here is how it will work: I will not reveal the answer to this Appetizer until Wednesday, April 25th. In the meantime, however, I challenge you to discern what “very unusual and curious property” is possessed by the five questions I have presented. 
But, better yet, after you have figured that property out, I encourage you to create your own questions that share the same property and post them in our comments section. You can post these “unusually curious” questions at any time – beginning immediately and running through April 25 when you and I will reveal the curious and unusual property in your answer-comments and in my official answers for the record.
Answers to all other puzzles on this week’s Puzzleria! will be revealed this coming Wednesday, April 18:
ONE  Imogen of Cymbeline Appetizer;
ONE  Agricartural Slice;
ONE  Balmy Bayou Breeze Dessert; and
SEVEN Um, Er, Uh, Ahem, Riffing Off Shortz Slices.

That’s it. T.G.I.F. ...Think Good, It’s Friday. 
Because, T.P.I.F. ... Tackling Puzzleria! Is Fun! 
So, have a blast with our two-week creative challenge...
and with all our puzzles.      

Appetizer Menu

Two-Week Creative Challenge Appetizer:
 I’ve a question about 5 questions


The questions in red below share a very curious and rare property. If you can discover that curious property you will be able to answers the questions correctly. What very rare and curious property do the five questions share that most questions (like the one you are now reading) do not?

What helps undo eskimos’ overcoats?
Why outlaw antigun statutes? 
Who prepares ingestibles, sushi, miso? 
When do fittest hearts expire? 
Who overtaxed America’s hierarchy?
Hint: 
Sentences with this curious and unusual property are not confined to just questions. Here is a declarative statement that shares, in a somewhat similar manner, the same unusual property:
Lovers overshadow haters.
Note: Remember, after you have discovered what makes these five questions and one statement very unusual, compose your own sentences that have the same property, then post them in our comments section. Thank you.

Keyboarding Appetizer:
e Moe Gee!

Here is a crude homemade emoji that you can reproduce on a standard keyboard:

Translate the emoji above into a  word that has been lately much in the news.

MENU

Old MacDonald Had A Ford Slice:
Studebakersfield, Califarmia?

A California farmer drives around his plantation surveying the fruits of his labors, which can be expressed in a two-word plural term. Remove the first letter of each word and replace an “s” with an “r”. The result is the brand name of the vehicle the farmer drives. 
What is the two-word term for the fruits of his labors? What is the name of his vehicle?


Riffing Off Shortz Slices:
Ah,esitation leads to Am,er,icablending

Will Shortz’s April 8th NPR Weekend Edition Sunday puzzle reads:

Puzzleria!’s Riffing Off Shortz Slices read:
ONE:
Name part of the human body. Change the first letter and insert a speech filler sound, and you’ll name a country. What is it? 
TWO: 
Name a kind of bean. Insert a homophone of a speech filler sound, and you’ll name a country. What is it?

THREE:
Name the profession, in a short and informal form, of Robert Levinson, Melvin Purvis or Mark Felt. Insert a speech filler sound and remove a punctuation mark, and you’ll name an any citizen of a certain country. What is it? 
FOUR:
Name brand name vehicles with either two or four wheels that come into contact with the road during operation. Insert a homophone of a speech filler sound, and you’ll name a country. What is it?
FIVE:
Give a collective plural name for Sarah, Kezia, Malik, Auma, Abo, Yusuf, Sasha and Sayid. Remove the first letter and insert a speech filler sound, and you’ll name a country. What is it?

In the second half of the name, insert the rearranged letters of a 4-letter word that, along with wax paper, combine to  make a makeshift “musical instrument” (but before rearranging, change the first letter of the 4-letter word to an “i”). Again, you’ll name a country.
What are these two countries? what is the beverage? 
SEVEN:
A. Name a kind of pet, in four letters. Insert one letter, and you’ll name a country. What is it?

C. Name a country. Insert the rearranged letters of a 4-letter body part, and you’ll name another country. What is it? 
D. Name a 3-letter androgynous name. Insert the rearranged letters of a 3-letter boy’s name, and you’ll name a country. What is it? 
E. Name a 3-letter oath that is also a vow. 
Insert a speech filler sound, and you’ll name a U.S. state. What is it?
F. Name a synonym of  balderdash, baloney, beans, blarney, blather, bosh, bull, bunk, bunkum, claptrap, drivel, folderol, folly, foolishness, fudge, hogwash, hokeypokey, hokum, hooey, humbug, humbuggery, jazz, malarkey, moonshine, nonsense, piffle, poppycock, rot, rubbish, senselessness, silliness, stupidity, tommyrot, trash, trumpery and twaddle. 


Rearrange the letters and place a speech filler sound at the end, and you’ll name a country. 

What is it?

Dessert Menu

Up A Lazy River Dessert:
Bayou Mystique



The poetic quartet below (written in anapestic tetrameter) contains six  hidden  words: the 3-word title of a reasonably well known popular song, and the three words that precede that title in the song’s lyrics. 
Can you find these six words?
A parade of trees – loblolly, baobab, yew –
Whisper past as we drift in our bayou canoe.
Brush the Red River sunset like rouge on a cheek
Breezes kiss – bayou’s balmy caressing mystique.   

Every Friday at Joseph Young’s Puzzleria! we publish a new menu of fresh word puzzles, number puzzles, logic puzzles, puzzles of all varieties and flavors. We cater to cravers of scrumptious puzzles!

Our master chef, Grecian gourmet puzzle-creator Lego Lambda, blends and bakes up mysterious (and sometimes questionable) toppings and spices (such as alphabet soup, Mobius bacon strips, diced snake eyes, cubed radishes, “hominym” grits, anagraham crackers, rhyme thyme and sage sprinklings.)

Please post your comments below. Feel free also to post clever and subtle hints that do not give the puzzle answers away. Please wait until after 3 p.m. Eastern Time on Wednesdays to post your answers and explain your hints about the puzzles. We serve up at least one fresh puzzle every Friday.

We invite you to make it a habit to “Meet at Joe’s!” If you enjoy our weekly puzzle party, please tell your friends about Joseph Young’s Puzzleria! Thank you.
