Orange?

I would say Brugge but that rhymes with huge.

Orange? :)

BR you may be sick with a sore throat and fever, but you got the answer right!!

But that's in New Jersey - has that state succeeded to Europe?

Gotcha, wren. Yep, Orange it is...way to go, BR!

By the way, Orange does rhyme with *two* words in English if you say them fast enough: door hinge. :)

And one other by-the-way...John McPhee wrote an excellent book called "Oranges"

Whew, you had me going until that second clue.

Hmmm......ok, building on the A. 8 letters, the A is the second letter.

Clue: I wish I could change the picture on mine.

Passort? because I wish I could too :)

Holy cow! This thread has taken on a life of its own! If I had known you all were so good at crosswords I would have asked for help every week!

LOL Scarlett......add a P and you've got it! (I hate my pic, sigh...and the one on my driver's license too!)

Aww , jeeez, I was so excited that I had it, I didn't take time to preview!!

OK, three letter word, down, building off of the N .
Clue: No in Scotland

Welcome back jnn!! It has taken off, hasn't it?

duh, the N in Orange (if that is the way it should go~)

Just jump right in, jnn1964. I posted the "rules" (there's only one, really) a few messages back.

Get that thinking cap on!

Is it Nay?

This doesn't build off anything -- though it was inspired by "Passport" -- is not a European name, and is really a groaner, but what 7-letter word could be another name for a chair?

Yes, wren. Spelled Nay or Nae.
We can go with NAY :)

I'm gonna hit the hay, folks. Still not 100% over this bug. Blecchhh.

Carry on, and in the morning I'll check to see what's been posted. Nightie night, Fodorites!

Get well, BR. You are smart to call it quits early...Good night

For the rest of us, let's work on Capo's clue.

For a change, it's nice to hear I have a clue. :)
