pierce "hawkeye" from M*A*S*H butler is some one who serves you...

=piercebutler route that runs by newell

May be a stretch, but its better than "triad newell"

If you add "eye" to the equation, "Well-trained eye" can be anagramed into "Yet I Read Newell".

Someone yesterday was talking about a reference to Macbeth. Can someone explain what they were talking about. (I'm too lazy to search through 2000 posts!)

like tri-ad-newell better only cause they used chair-o-key before it much simpler, you cant expect someone to get Yet I read Newell, but it really dont matter since its the same park, heh

I just found it- Macbeth- it says something about 3 witches.....

Macbeth is playing at the Ordway center for performing arts next month and I was thinking maybe there is a sign up for it already and it visible from Rice Park???

If you "attack" the clue with a well-trained eye you can figure it out, Dave!!!!
