I think he's got it!

[The Man With No Aim]

Huh?

Got what? A empty whisky bottle. Yep. 

A empty pocket? Yep, I reckon. 

But I feel like Red in A Perfect World. "I got a hunch. Gimme a crowbar."

I got a hunch. Gimme a R. I feel RISKY.

Bartender, no water, no ice, no glass, just leave the bottle.

Oh, but be sure to leave me my I.

If you get this one, you'll have to post the next one.

[The Man With No Aim]

I aint worryin about tomorrow. I'm in the zone. I'm feelin risky, like Will Munny ridin in the storm into Big Whisky. Risky in Big Whisky.

Back when I was young and strong, I played some sports, baseball, tennis, racquetball, bowling. Some times I felt strange, in the zone, in the Eye Of The Tiger. Like Kevin Costner, the pitcher, in Love Of The Game, "stop the mechanism". I knew I could do nothing wrong, make no big mistakes.

So right now I'm feelin RISKY. And I want to spell it out. Feeling big bold and powerful. 

May I pretty please get a K if it aint any bother at all?

MWNA, if you solve this and post a new one, I'll help you with the "gallows" pictures. when the time comes.

[The Man With No Aim]

Thank you, KC, for your generous offer of technical help. Odds are, I'll need it.  But we'll play it as it lays and we'll see.

I remind me of a mid summer day just a few years ago. Saturday afternoon, baseball game on the tv, BIG UNIT pitching in his last playing year. His time at bat; he swung and hit the ball. I know!  So BIG UNIT is earnestly running to first. The announcer, a retired baseball player himself, sez, "I know what exactly he's thinking! "Awwww, man!, now I gotta run!""

Awwww, man, now I gotta (maybe) soon do them techibobble things what I don't yet know for sure how to do. OK, I'll touch the ice when I need to.

The way I got it planned, I'm lookin for a S. You got one you aint usin right now?

Hmm, interesting, this character has "RISKY" embedded in his name. Nomen est omen, as the Romans used to say.

There will be a beautiful symmetry, if the first letter become revealed, as has been the last, like unto the two bookends which encompass and shelter their content.

Let there be a C !!

You like to string 'em out ... if not up, I guess ...

C E, who around here could possibly be called C E, and who could be said that his middle name is RISKY?

But, this is not the director. This is a character in a C E movie.

What the H..L, let's do it.

In my next post.

[The Man With No Aim]

Time to finish this one and do a new one?

Ok, first, try a H and see what happens.

If that worked good, then try a L to wrap it.

You gots it ...

Over to you!

[The Man With No Aim]

Just a little time to make sure I get my adding and my spaling right, then the next H A N G E M H I G H puzzler will be served right up!

New one:

Character in an Eastwood film:


_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _


This one is so hard you need some clues.

1)...Not all of the alphabet letters are used.

2)...No numbers are used.
