    1. @Teedmn - yep … In retrospect, I think dealin with each title-endin twist the way 16-A did woulda made for a way cooler theme mcguffin. Instead of the scatter-shot endins used by the existin theme, which aimed at random (hence consistently un-expected) endins. Oh well. I'll keep it in mind, for a sequel…

Aside to M&A -- Sorry, but despite my many wonderful vacation weeks spent at the Mall Orca, I had never heard of this Catalan tradition, but now that I have read about it (thanks to National Geographic), I have to share it with someone: Take the time to read the Wikipedia article on "caganer."
