    I agree. For those of us who did rack our brains for a few hours we need to get the carrot at the end.

    Yesterday's answer:

    Subtract the user # from $801 to get the user's "bankroll". To wit:

    BigDog has $233 (BigDog = user# 568; $801-568 = $233)
    Bill Dozer has $798 (Bill Dozer = user# 3; $801-3 = $798)
    BuddyBear has $779 (BuddyBear = user# 22; $801-$22 = $798)
    isetcap's girlfriend has $75 (isetcappa = user# 726 ; $801-726 = $75)
    natrass has $553 (natrass = user# 248; $801-248 = $553)

    Willie Bee = user# 832; $801-832=-$31

    Hence Wilie Bee has -$31

    Looks like an ankh . . . and then a boat/ship (could be looking for a component like hull, stern, bow - or maybe it's a submarine) . . . then we got a turd which, we all know, has many synonyms . . . and then Iraq minus rack which would, by my calculations, be "I".

    And it's something associated with neoconservatism and possibly hair products.

    Hmmmmmm . . . .

    Is that a real answer or are you just welding sounds together?

    I've actually shown this puzzle to a bunch of people over on my side of the computer. The universal opinion was rather negative. Even knowing what each picture represented it was still hard to piece together.

    My apologies.

    Ankh +
    Hull +
    Turd +
    Iraq -
    Rack

    Recall the puzzle name, "Coming soon to a Neocon Salon near you".

    Well I don't know. I've never heard of Hank Shipshitti but I don't know every character from American politics nor am I an expert on salon products . . .

    Okay the answer to your question is, I think you were welding sounds together.

    Lemme focus here . . .
