Dumb question: Is it "sealing" wax or "ceiling" wax?  I'd have no use for either.

I first thought it was the latter, but I think its the former. As in sealing canned fruit..

But there is such a thing as sealing wax?  Wax would seem a lousy sealant.

Was it the Flipper trainer who now is very against exploiting dolphins and animals in general?

"YS" isn't one of my favorite Beatles (yay) songs.  But hey, without it, we'd never have gotten its sequel, "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey."

Before the advent of lick & stick adhesives on envelopes, the only way to assure that a document had been unopened between sender and recipient was for the sender to use his seal on a blob of hot wax (and for the recipient to recognize the seal of course).

Seal in this sense was a noun long before it became a verb.

In the off chance that this is not a 10-way tie I have to go with "Happy Jack" in the sand on the Isle on Man.

But Stones, Beatles, Who & Kinks - all in the first half - it's just a cornucopia of BOS's!

WOS to "Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind," which just gets creepy when the sister comes into play.
