We'll have to abandon the 0.177.
I have tried over 20 takes and not getting it. Here is 0.300 seconds.

Feel a little more confident about this guess, but still just a guess.

I can understand your confidence, mofford. I believe you've got it.

Yes and too bad the 0.177 was not enough.
The extra 0.123 did it.

Think I had good timing for that one, surprised someone didn't pop in and scoop it up. Thought about waiting to see if anyone else could get it, but this is Jan 1st, and I wanted to make sure to get the first puzzle of the year. This gives me a good feeling, going forward into 2019, I'm sure it will be a fine year. I was hoping to play the Happy Days theme for you, the season which had Ralph Mouth doing his self makeout thing in the opening credits, which they only used for one season, but I can't find it.

Happy New Year !!

If you have an ear for instruments the new record can be yours.

0.177 seconds.

That snippet sounds like a brass instrument. The familiar sound might come from....

Wishin' And Hopin' - Dusty Springfield

If it ain't baroque, then don't fix it....

We'll see if I'm right with this one.

Even if that's not it, case, I am flat-out impressed. That clip fits. And no - I wouldn't have gotten it even though I picked up a bargain bin CD of Dusty's big hits last year and kept it in my work vehicle all summer long. You're good!

It's the 2:50:000 second mark to the 2:50.177 mark = new record in the instrument category of 0.177 seconds. We started around 0.200 and we are about half way to what may be the limit around 0.160. At some point they become impossible.

This is real lead crystal I hope you know.
