@acjones Rent is the past tense and past participle of rend. Moon, as in "to moon the afternoon away."
@Cory L 13D is an adjective, not a noun. Thus faxed, not faxes.
@Steve L Nothing much to say--just tossing another Steve/Steven into the mix. But the puzzle was fun, even without any Pig Latin knowledge.
@Francis Those were Nudie Suits. Many country stars wore them back in the day. They were created by Nuta Kotlyarenko, aka Nudie Cohn, a Ukrainian-American tailor.
@Gregg It also accepts KITKAT
@Heidi One will occasionally see "PAH" in a book. It's been around for a while. OED: The earliest known use of the word pah is in the late 1500s. OED's earliest evidence for pah is from 1592, in the writing of Thomas Kyd, playwright and translator.

@Bob T. Overact is a fine synonym for emote: Merriam-Webster Dictionary: to give expression to emotion especially in acting, tending toward use that is less than entirely serious. It frequently appears in humorous or deprecating descriptions of the work of actors, and is similarly used to describe theatrical behavior by nonactors. Collins Dictionary: 2. to portray emotion in acting, esp. exaggeratedly or ineptly; behave theatrically
@Andrzej As kids, we used to go snipe hunting. It was a joke, which one of the group was not familiar with. Give that person a paper bag and tell them to go and find a snipe in the brush. We had no idea what the bird was--it was just a silly kid's game.
@Jeff Z As Beth mentions, it is often on the bottle. Crisco for example says "Pure Vegetable Oil".
