Re: Puzzle questions

The reggae offshoot is SKA.

The Badfinger l.p. is ASS.

                         Good luck,

	I tried to send mail to answer the SKA question, but
it came back and the answer was posted before i could get to it.
nevertheless, reggae is an offshoot of SKA, not the other
way around.  Ska has been around before reggae, but it never
made it big here until recently.  Maybe that's because it resembles
(at least for me) a combination of the feelings of reggae and
the liveliness of new wave.
	Long live the Specials (now Fun Boy Three), Selector,
Madness, Bad Manners, and checkerboards!!!!
