Done it but didn't time because I was doing a couple of things at once.

I love these puzzles where did you get it from?

^ that's your way of saying, "It started taking me 45 minutes, got frustrated, decided to cook dinner... and my wife solved it later while she ate ice cream and I did the dishes. So I didn't time myself."

this puzzle I can't remember where I read it, but I loved it as soon as I saw it's devious little "hiccup" .

the other puzzle I made up because I just wondered it for a long time, so I decided to solve it.

Nah I was studying business finance and watching tv and it took me about 30mins. I like your version better though

There was one clue in there that I found a little ambiguous and it caused me to hesitate at the beginning but I made an assumption and carried on and that turned out correct.

I have done a puzzle similar to this once before I think I found it on puzzle.net but I'll check later and post a couple of their puzzles on here for fun.

Wayyyyyy off topic here, but...
There was a prose written about a new international language being developed (JOKE). After reading how the language is derived and how it's changed, we realize that it is an American person trying to mimic a German accent.
Can you help me find it...I originally saw it on s2ki.com, search didn't help.
