Studied some Freud back in the day, don’t remember anything about fixation, so I guessed Superman, confusing with some other German speaking guy. Guess that didn’t fly.

Didn’t know any of the Jordans (except maybe Love) so it was a guessing game. I didn’t know Emanuel Quickie either.

Also didn’t get yellow - seemed cheesy to me. And never heard of a tang fish - is that what astronauts eat in space?

Never heard of Mizuno. If I had missed P I would have looked back in Anger

Dory is a blue tang

Totally forgot she is in that group Blue Tang Clam. They are a great way to enjoy seafood rap.

One of the strangest DUHs ever. Consulted wife after my two tries at green (recognizing the green connection.) Proposed both the blue and purple rationale, but with serious reservations about purple. I didn’t like that there were two REs since I was using last two letters instead of first two[/spoiler]

(even though I recognized that SOLTI had both first and last)

GRRR. Couldn’t figure out how to make nested or sequential spoilers work in a single post. Maybe sequential would have worked if I had started that way, but after starting with nested spoilers editing to create sequential did not work.
