The 5 original clues -
1. Ernest Hemingway. The pic is of Mariel Hemingway, his granddaughter, the text is his Nobel Prize citation. One of his works is the clue.
2. Exodus
3. The movie The Ten Commandments which among other things depicts the plagues inflicted on the egyptians.
4. Neil Gaiman - creater of The Sandman.
5. The Gadsden Flag. The blanked out slogan is the clue.
There are enough hints here. I have also added an additional clue, which should make the connect obvious. - Tuesday, March 18, 2008 10:11:00 PM
