Here's a new game idea - see if it takes off?

Type two words with a blank in the middle; that black represents a word that comes after the first one and before the second one in common phrases, titles, or names.

For example...

Harry ___________ 's wheel

answer: POTTER (Harry Potter, Potter's wheel)

example 2:

James ________ the cat

answer: GARFIELD (James Garfield, Garfield the cat)

If it gets tough, we can hint a category (both are books), or one of the two complete clues (second is an actress).

Anyone up for it? let's try!

Invisibility __________ and Dagger

Link, he come to town
Come to save the princess zelda
Ganon took her away
Now the children dont play
But they will when Link saves the day
Hallelujah!

Now Link, fill up your hearts
So you can shoot your sword with power
And when you're feeling all down
The fairy will come around
So you'll be brave, and not a sissy coward

Now Link has saved the day
Put Ganon in his grave
So now Zelda is free
And now our hero shall be
Link! I think your name shall go down into history

Of course people make lettuce juice. It's called "water". Where do you think all that water comes from when you turn on the tap? It's connected to huge lettuce juicing plants.
