Answer to Massapequa Mind Boggler

We gave you an extra week to solve our mystery photo puzzle. It didn't help.

We're still smiling! We gave you every opportunity and even a second chance to solve our weekly mystery puzzle.

You had two chances to give us the location of our smiley face, but both times you came up with nothing, zero, a big donut hole.

Or should we say a big "bagel hole" because the answer is the store on Merrick Road next to

This place has been a Massapequa institution since 1976. And the orange smiley face in the window tells about their specials.

While we are going to declare victory this week, we should acknowledge that Donna Myers came close with her guess.

Our gloating will be short lived, as we'll be back Monday with another edition of the Massapequa Mind Boggler.

I am dissenting on this Mind boggler that this is way too small to qualify for a mind boggler clue.
There should be some basic parameters for it to be a clue such as the ability to see it from 100 feet away.

2ndly that poster is not a fixed item. It should not qualify as a boggler!!!

when you say elite do you mean the hard working people who have money? it's a matter of labels. youRead More call them elite..they call themselves hard workers. yes, some inherit money. but most of us work for it.

No, it has nothing to do with how hard you work. It's just that the elite one percenters are treatedRead More differently when they run afoul of the laws in this country. No one has been jailed for the corporate malfeasance that resulted in the financial crash of '08, in spite of the rules that were ignored or broken. Too big to fail is the order of the day. Meanwhile, petty frauds committed by poor and middle class are prosecuted to the full extent of the law. Two Americas. The rule of law, unevenly applied, whether by race, or class, or economic station will result in the unraveling of society. We may well be seeing the beginnings of that now, as we've entered a new gilded age, where new robber barons are allowed to run roughshod over the lower classes. The very ideals of America are at stake, and we are letting them slide away.

Will the new Massapequa station platform be covered end-to-end as it is now? If it will only beRead More partially covered, like Seaford station, there are going to be a lot of cold, wet, unhappy commuters.

Mr. Coyote, The design plans only call for a canopy over certain parts of the station platform, likeRead More almost all of the other stations along the branch. The canopies will be primarily over the staircases, elevator, waiting room, and one other small section on the middle section of the platform between the elevator and east escalator.

Also blocks along Alhambra Road including Granada and Sutton. It rained the other day and was up toRead More the front lawn on one house that is still being renovated from Sandy!!!! Horrible if those owners saw this.
