Daily Bread for 12.19.13

Good morning.

There’s a forty-percent chance of freezing rain in the late afternoon, with a high for the day of thirty-one.

Whitewater’s Tech Park Board meets today at 9 AM.

On this day in 1776, Thomas Paine publishes the first portion of The American Crisis. The essays begin with one of Paine’s most memorable descriptions: ‘These are the times that try men’s souls: The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.’

Here’s the Thursday edition of Puzzability‘s Christmas-themed series:

This Week’s Game — December 16-20
Do You Hear What I Hear?
Hark, the puzzling angels sing. For each day this week, we started with a well-known lyric from a Christmas carol. Then, for the day’s clue, we broke it down into a series of words that, when said in order, sounds like the original lyric. You’ll probably need to say the words out loud to get the answers.
Example:
Easy, shoe, veinier, cell, he, pink
Answer:
He sees you when you’re sleeping (from “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town”)
What to Submit:
Submit the lyric (as “He sees you when you’re sleeping” in the example) for your answer.
