Extra (Last Word) Sudoku Puzzles for Saturday, 1/15/2011

What will be the last words you ever utter?

Some plan ahead. Or think fast under pressure…

I discovered a wonderful book “Immortal Last Words” by Terry Breverton (Quercus Publishing, Plc, London; www.quercusbooks.co.uk) containing the last words or immortal sayings of 370 people—dying remarks, deathbed declarations and final farewells, as the title page explains it. Find it from London publisher Quercus Publishing, Plc online at http://www.quercusbooks.co.uk/book.php?id=9781849164788 or from Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Immortal-Last-Words-Memorable-Statements/dp/1849164789. I’ll present a few of these sayings each month this year on the Ides, encasing them in Qudoku puzzle sets and challenging you to ‘decode’ them.
