Submitted. Quick but enjoyable. I find Matt's ability to create interesting puzzles at all difficulty levels to be amazing.
Happy to join Kay in the top 5.

#51 -- just missed the top 50, though my time stamp is the same as #50. Ditto for #52 (aka DannyVee). I guess seconds count.

Way to go, Kay!
As always, I'm so amazed that Matt is living in the same world I am yet notices things that he can turn into these puzzles, and also that the world provides the material to make them possible.

Is it "The Green Mile?" I was considering "That Thing You Do" but it was two too many letters.
