1..Rbny & zorro with a one word difference. I go with zorro, "Want", but I differ from both where
I insert "about", rather than "around".
This is a line in EMBRACEABLE YOU, which best & VTC cite.

2..Bagwan...ring any bells?

3..Husky & K9 recognize the Crowded House number HEY NOW! HEY NOW!

4..Four of you, including ed4 & VAUC, with A WOMAN OF NO IMPORTANCE.

5..Best & zorro offer IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT. The earlier song goes, "In the Still of the Night, as I gaze out my window at the moon in its flight..."

6..Only VAUC provides the Italian/American beauty Annabelle Sciorra.

7..Rbny, Best & zorro show up with Tenderly. I myself don't always recover from brain lock. For example, I just watched a new release
called Albatross. Now I have seen every chapter of Downton Abbey where the star of Albaross is a major player. I did not recognize her.

8..VTC has the right direction but is sketchy. Stayman is a coded way of asking partner if he has at least 4 cards in hearts or
spades, but it is only used if you yourself have at least 4 in one of them. Since you have only 13 cards, your holding precludes 4 hearts
or 4 spades.

9..Zorro is the only poster with Madagascar.

10..K9, Best & VTC with HEARTACHE TONIGHT. VTC types in The Eagles.

11..Best had one chance of 26 to accurately offer that the name ends in "O". It's now upon me to provide the other letters--CREDO.

12..Rbny leads 4 with I CONCENTRATE ON YOU.

13..Geeez, a whole bunch of sweathog watchers were you. Welcome Back Kotter. And some even provide the names.
My hat's off to you.

I ask your patience with my part B reactions, as I shall first have brunch.
