Acrochallenge!

Hello, acroers and lovers of letters. Welcome to another round of acromania.

I'm very tired, and time is short, because I'm about to go record the 100th episode of the Hucklebug podcast. So let's get right to it.

I was thinking today about big bands. Not bands full of big people, or marching bands, but big bands that play jazz and swing. Like, well, like the band from my favorite Bob and Ray skit, Lloyd Fletch and His All-Male Orchestra. Big bands tend to have big names. Claude Hoople's All-Star Rhapsodic Revue and the like.

This week's acro? "What's the Name of Your Big Band?"

Rules are easy. Three entries per person to come up with the best acronym you can. It must match the topic above and the letters below, which are randomly drawn from the acrobasket. Who once played triangle in Wally Williams and his Wistful Wayward Wickerbaskets. I'll be reading the entries and judging at 10:00 pm est tomorrow. Then I shall name the winners.

The topic, "What's the Name of Your Big Band?" The letters:

R N L O E N F

Now, tune up and acro.

Betland's Olympic Update:
* I mowed the lawn today. Started the mower twice, once for the back and once for the front, and on the front - one pull. Started with one pull. I'm pretty special, huh.
