PUZZLE #416: Drop Tower 10

PUZZLE #416
DROP TOWER 10

Starting with an 8-letter word on top of the "tower", drop one letter and rearrange the rest to form a 7-letter word. Continue this process until only a 2-letter word remains. Since the tower is completely blank, use the randomly-ordered clues to figure out the words that go in each row.

Once the grid is completely filled in, look inside it for this week's FINAL ANSWER: a six-letter word that can be read going down and in a straight diagonal line.


CLUES
• A or an, grammatically speaking
• Banjo-strumming Scruggs
• Cartoon mermaid who initially thought a fork was a comb
• Kal-_____ (Superman's birth name)
• Opposite of wholesale
• Seagram's Ginger _____
• Woodwind instrument played by Squidward (poorly, I might add)

Once you believe you've figured out the FINAL ANSWER, 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 even ask for a hint, though you'll be marked as having used one if you do so) 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 a link to a .PDF version which you can print out!
