Probably to celebrate 0ne year of being "Nicotine-free" having stopped...very abruptly! ...via "cold-turkey" on Nov 28th 2012....
:bulletpurple: Who can enter the contest:
Anyone who comments on this deviation with a guess....

:bulletpurple: Entry Procedure:
If your comment guess is your entry to the contest: insert: "Entry" or "Guess" as part of sentence in your comment ...Easy Peasy!...Right?.....right!

:bulletpurple: How Many Comments /Guesses are we allowed:
As many as you like... check other peoples attempts and my replies tho' first...., naturally...;)

*:bulletgreen: Important Notes:
There will be a slightly more revealing pic and clue sometime on Sat / Sunday each week via "update" on this same deviation as well as, perhaps...to help..a little... bonus clue(s) inserted obliquely in my Journal, articles for #projecteducate and here in this "Artist's Description" box... ([3rd ||Sep||2013] new insert/clue ): .....like the fact that from now on, any correctly identified clue mentioned in a comment by a deviant on this page will be indicated by the addition of one word, then two then three, in correct order L-R, as more clues are solved from the following phrase, (appropriate.. don't you think?....):

"... elementary, my dear friend..." said Sherlock Holmes to Doctor Watson..."

to the appropriate clue above........thus the set of clues will appear weirder and more enigmatic-looking as clue-solving progresses... :)</b>

*(not to be vocalised by those a touch inebriated and using this as a fun!, but silly party game... I heard that innuendo of a description by the way!.... be sensitive in public.. yeah?....;) P. )
