Had goldens. Miss them a lot. Mine were never that well trained, though, but they trained us pretty well. 🙂

Rita Hayworth made it look like she never had to practice dancing at all, it just came to her naturally. We know how many countless hours of practice it must have taken.

Worked with someone who used to take care of the telephone lines out in Nebraska. A good lightning strike could leave a mile of little copper nodules on the ground under where a telephone line used to be.

10 minutes 16 seconds to find all 10 of the differences (and I stopped looking).
 

 

My ten differences
dalmation collar
exclamation point
rear door handle
interior seat line (calling it that)
dot upper right of trunk keyhole
752 to 52
paw print on back of truck
kill to krill
condiments jar next to Cleo
window glass frame left of dead guy

PLEASE, Alexi….

or anyone checking your solution
Remember, this puzzle is made by a human for other humans…. it can’t be pixel-perfect.

Two of your “differences” are apparently tiny little shifts in lines…

I can’t see them even when I enlarge it… and one is a single stray pixel you call a dot.

Those things are almost beyond control in hand-creating and posting images online.

Meanwhile, your list is missing two quite visible ones out of the actual nine.

I get here as early as I can, often way earlier than I did on GoComics …

and I’ve already checked my solution with StelBel or Nighthawks if I had any doubts as to the intent of the maker.

It’s not like the word puzzles where we’re all guessing.

Sure, I’ve been wrong a time or two… and everything is open to debate, if you think you’ve found something I didn’t, or a mistake.

But please… couldn’t that wait until AFTER everyone has a chance to see the puzzle creator’s idea of the solution?

Thanks.

At 10pm EDT the seat line was there, and was quite noticeable. I missed one of the other differences because I stopped counting at 9. Someone updated the image between Alexi and Susan.

No way i can do this tonight. Even with my glasses it’s too blurry.
I’ll post my guess tomorrow.
Good night people and pets. 🙂

I love these compilations of dancers matched to more recent music. I remember Rita in Gilda, but this is just fun. Clara and Claude, get out there!

Please, people… this is a normal puzzle… not even a particularly difficult one…

there are NINE differences, and NONE of them are tiny stray single pixels, or almost invisible changes to lines due to internet reproduction.

Give it a try, you’ll find them!

I posted my solution and then saw that something had happened to it… I have to fix it, then I’ll be right back….

to post the OFFICIAL solution.

Accept no substitutes.

Veeerrrry interesting. On your “this is a normal puzzle” post, I’m seeing a “Click to Edit”. While it would be fun to mess with you, I won’t do it, but that doesn’t mean the thought didn’t cross my mind. 🙂

I see two “click to edit” lines…. I didn’t realise other people could see one of them as well.

Now I’m dying to find out whether someone else
can really edit my comment…

But I wonder whether it would get messed up in the process.

Yikes. Might be quite a security glitch, in a way…. or maybe it doesn’t work at all.

I see your “Click to Edit” on this post. I clicked it and all I got was a white page with a “0” in the left hand corner. So I guess no one can edit it. The days, hours, minutes and seconds don’t change either.

Thank you!

I tried it myself and got the same thing on one of the links… the other worked normally.

Glad to know it’s the “public” one that doesn’t edit my post.

Wonder how it happened, though.

Sorry, I accidentally deleted the part where I said thanks for finding NINE…

so I’m saying it again. 🙂

There’s no formatting toolbar when you edit after refreshing….

I thought I could get it back by deleting and re-posting…. but I didn’t realise the replies would be gone too.

sigh….

It was apparently the space key on my keyboard…

it was stuck on one end, so it still made spaces in the middle…

but somehow it kept dropping red from the bucket tool.

Only when I hit “save”, so I didn’t see it.

….

Don’t ask me, I don’t understand it either. But I got it unstuck and it seems OK. (Fingers crossed.)

I did have to delete your comment and my answer again.

Sorry.

But thanks.

EWC?
I assume EWC’s responsible for all that red cat’s up and the scratch marks on the leftmost door?

Um…
Did you mean catsup?

And are you talking about my circle (which i actually a rounded square) around a missing item?

Because I always mark the right-hand frame, I have to circle things that only appear on the left.

It confuses somepeople.

But sure… blame the EWC for anything you like.

Thanks for only finding nine.

I wanted to spoiler-warn the image and succeeded with another one but can’t delete the not warned one or delete the comment. :’-(

Oh!!

I thought you meant the car door!

Aaaaaghhh….
…. I see it now…. it’s the same as I posted ….

but yes, surely the EWC…

and not me accidentally dropping red into the door with the bucket tool when I was fixing the other mistake.

I never make mistakes…. cough….

Check out the art of Carl Spitzweg and Wilhelm Busch (who was a great cartoonist) – both lived and worked in Munich (Bavaria – Germany in case you forgot).

The cartoon is a link to an article about Wilhelm Busch.
There exists a television show; “Holy Wilhelm Busch onomatopeias, Batman. We owe this guy a lot ! ! !”

Okay…. all fixed!

I’d made a stray mark and it’s gone.

And now I have (I hope) fixed the other thing I did while fixing that!

Thanks Tigressy for pointing it out!

TWICE.

HERE is the solution!

@ Everybody

A piece of trivia I heard yesterday that might be of interest to “Cleo and Company” readers, given its setting.
This quote “…somebody in Cleveland, flipped it” (said by Anne Murray) refers to the beginning of Gene MacLellan’s “Snowbird,” rise to number one on the “Billboard” charts.
The lady herself says in the interview at the link below that “Biding My Time” was the “A” side of the record.
The whole 00:11:28 interview is worth listening to, I think, but the part relevant to this comment begins just after the 07:15 mark and ends at the 08:02 mark.

Okay, i’ve had a couple of veggie bergers that were actually good. They are getting better at it.
But, i’ve still got some rotisserie chicken from earlier in the week left to work on…

Got all 9 for a change ~ it’s been awhile. I’m pretty sure they are right. Those golden retrievers are really cute. Not sure about how they retrieve the cat. But, at least they share their bacon with it.

Got a lot of stuff going on today, so I won’t even attempt today’s puzzle until much later.

so glad we have the “spoiler “ feature.

Yes…. Better to test when you have nothing to hide.

My first (and unsuccessful) test was when I was posting a puzzle solution…

I wished I’d tried it on something that didn’t matter.

As i recall, I ended up linking to a link to the solution elsewhere, and then figured it out for the next week.
