PUZZLE #261
ANAGRAM CHAMBERS 7
For this puzzle, there are several dark-green "chambers" with yellow rectangles and light-green squares in them. For each chamber, you take a word in the first yellow rectangle as hinted at by the clue, add a letter from the light-green square, and scramble them to get a word in the second yellow rectangle, then you repeat the process to get the word in the third yellow rectangle. Once you've filled in everything, the light-green squares will spell out something... or they would, if the chambers weren't all scrambled up as well!
Once all of the chambers are in the proper order, the light-green squares will spell out the FINAL ANSWER: a two-word phrase
a. [Mr. Schwarzenegger, to fans] + _ = [Light-sensitive part of the eye] + _ = [Subject of Newton's first law]
b. ["_____ Monday" (Bangles song)] + _ = [He "cometh" in a play by Eugene O'Neill] + _ = [War that lasted from 1853-56]
c. [Stadium seats' levels] + _ = [Puts to paper] + _ = [1996 movie with Helen Hunt tracking down tornadoes]
d. [Tom Clancy's Ghost _____ (tactical shooter video game series)] + _ = ["Architect of the nuclear age" Fermi] + _ = [Cypress or cedar, e.g.]
e. [Orion's brightest star] + _ = [Hamster relative with a long tail] + _ = [Peter who released three self-titled albums]
f. [Lacking toppings] + _ = [Another name for downhill skiing] + _ = [NBA player from New Orleans]
g. [Type of place where Irma the waitress works in Garfield] + _ = [Got the suds out] + _ = [Sitcom with a coffeeshop called Central Perk]
Once you think you know what the FINAL ANSWER is, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or get a hint from me in exchange for a "hint star", more details for that are on the sidebar to the right) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for two versions you can print out: a .PNG and a link to a .PDF!
