Thanks to some lovely fellow muggles for helping me out of my own self-imposed confusion I am now off the sofa! I simply was working back-asswards on "how to do a thing to another thing"- (don't wanna give it away).
Thanks @Abide,@Meg and @Al Sisti !

Very clever construction
(There have been a few instances of me not receiving submissions lately - I hope it's not a server issue?)

I am still on the ugly piggy couch, counting my toes -- just wish I knew how many I actually have....

I was excited to see that when I googled Encyclopedia Brown and the Case of the Impending Heist I got a hit for this xwordmuggle forum... I hadn't read Encyclopedia Brown so thought it might have been an actual book.
I'm off the couch but did need spoilers....This was a really fun puzzle. Thanks so much!

Newbie question: where are these supposed to be submitted, and does it vary by week / puzzle-setter?

Usually to the first post-er in the thread, and don't worry if your outgoing message is "stuck" in your outbox, it just means the person hasn't read it yet.

The Cat (burglar) is out of the bag. The nudges nudged me over the finish line. Thanks Josh for an entertaining brainteaser.

Solved! Thanks Josh. Fun puzzle. Needed all 3 nudges and still stared at it for awhile. On to the Wednesday puzzle!

Thanks for the info. Since it's Wednesday already, I'll skip submitting this one (solved on Monday) and head for the Wednesday puzzle.

Sorry, I used the wrong word. Should have said "clip." In the EB story, EB knew the girl was lying because she was clipping her fingernails, and she said she had just showered. (I assume there were sound effects.)
