I like that they keep referring to it as an “accident”, or an “unprovoked attack”. He was stalking an animal to kill it, and was close enough that he couldn’t get out of it’s way when it charged. Seems to me the animal was smart enough to defend itself, nothing accidental or unprovoked about it. Go Buffalo!

Edit: Different time zone, so wrong puzzle. Whoops.
I at least got green and blue but yellow was a disaster, never got close to purple.

Agreed, their site offers much more than just a simple listing. It is so tedious to have to navigate multiple different websites, trying to find the relevant information. Having a single, straightforward, centralised source showing availability, options and prices was amazing when they first started. Hotels have improved their online presence a lot in the last 20 years, but being able to filter consistently for detailed parameters is still valuable, as are their reviews.
I just wish they had stuck with their core business; I don’t want to be offered insurance or car rental or any of the rest of it :/

Ah. Never heard of the movie. The grade is hilarious, never heard that before either. Thanks.
C is for cookie is apparently from Sesame Street, which I didn’t grow up with (not American). Soooo, I’m blaming my upbringing for my failure 😉

Green and yellow are easy but purple is only true for Americans, and the last blue? Come on.
I knew I wasn’t seeing the categories but I had fun trying anyway.
Things you can bake: Apple, cookie, ziti (pasta), and, um, easy
Related to money and homophones of money: geo cache, cookie cache, apple pay, and heh easy money
These categories sound ridiculous but then I picture a class of kindergartners reciting "a is for apple, c is for cookie, e is for effort, and v is for vendetta! screeching halt sound effect Wait, what? What happened to van, or vet, or vase? Also, eggs and elephants would like a word.
Z is pronounced zed in huge swathes of the English speaking world, just saying.
Finally, in my defense on my first mistake, apple is also a tree. (OK fine, that one was my fault for skimming too fast.)
Hello beautiful boy.
He’s growing so fast! A little trim around the eyes so he can see better might be appreciated.

You’re right, it checks out. I was too late to access strands #520, so played #521 instead. Ah well 😁
