This week, one such clue has me stumped:
“Mule, for one“
. It’s a simple enough phrase, but the answer seems elusive.
Is it a type of animal? A profession? Maybe a brand name? The possibilities feel endless, and yet, none seem to click.
Let’s break down the clue and see what we can glean. “Mule” obviously refers to the hybrid animal, but what does “for one” mean in this context? Does it relate to a single mule, or is there something else at play?
This is where the real fun of crosswords comes in. It’s about using our knowledge of language, culture, and even a bit of lateral thinking to unlock the answer. So, pull up your thinking caps, dear crossword enthusiasts, and let’s dissect this perplexing clue together. I’m sure with a little bit of brainstorming, we’ll crack this nut and move on to the next challenge!
