Double Cross
Dr. TTT: I see you are confident you have enough nouns from my first challenge
to take on the second. You did notice they're all nouns, right? Well, you know what they say about nouns -- nouns are a person, place, or thing. So go ahead and fill out these three sets of crosses, using each answer from Singles Out exactly once.
(Also, make sure you remove all punctuation and
spaces from your answers to Singles Out before entering them into the blanks.)
