PUNZZLES Offer Hours of Challenging Fun!

You must translate configurations of letters, lines and symbols into familiar phrases. Sometimes certain "rules" must be applied to determine the solution. For instance: 

1)    WEAR                           2)
      ----                               KLAT
      LONG

These translate into 1) Long Underwear and 2) Back Talk (spelled backwards, get it?). Pretty simple, eh? But be careful because just when you think you've got the hang of it the rules can change. Also, sometimes possessive pronouns such as my, your, his, etc., are assumed as part of the answer, for instance: 

3)    NOT                           4)
      ----                              MDOLTEIIOFN
      LIFE

These translate into 3) Not On Your Life and 4) Backfield in Motion (Field spelled backwards, in the word Motion). Each PUNZZLE always gives enough information to figure out the answer without the missing pronouns.

Some PUNZZLES are located in and around boxes such as the one below: 

5)  +----------------------------+
    |                            |
    |                            |
    |Y                           |
    |N                           |
    |N                           |
    |U                           |
    |S                           |
    |                            |
    |                            |
    +----------------------------+

The words, letters, etc., that make up these almost always have to do with location. The answer to this one is 5) Sunny Side Up. This is derived from Sunny spelled upward, on the side of the box. The answers to this type usually include the words In, Out, Up, Down, Side and so on. They are usually positional words.
