 		[SOLVED] Puzzlecard Wordsearch->disc evidence
Well, that was damned scary, in the end.

Just got a call... from puzzlecards.net. I hate automated calls becuase they're grainy in sound... but I caught the last part of it. The rhyme ended with "you circle them when they are found." Leads to:

Good luck, y'all!

 		All of the words seem to be scrambled or something like that... The way they are currently displayed are not in the word find.

"Singer" I think is a fairly useful one - backwards in bottom right corner. An American singer Smile

 		Great work, ElGameR. All we need now is for them to be mirrored along the vertical center as the text on the back in backwards.
