We Solved the Riddle!

For some weeks now, I along with a buddy of mine (who served as a code breaker in the Army), have been trying to solve the riddle of who, or what is the Bullzeye family.

Finally we have the answer!

First we take the word BULLZEYE. Almost all coded words contain letters that are in there just to confuse the code breakers. Many times it is the same letter. In this case, he decided it is the letter "L". So we threw out the "L"

That leaves you with BUZEYE

It is common knowledge that B & D are the letters in the English language that are most confused with one another. Therefore, we change the B to D

Next the letter U. This one was easy. U is the last vowel, A is the first.

Z was a little more tricky, that is until you turn it on it's side and what do you get? Yup an N.

We are now left with EYE and this last part was indeed the hardest to solve. Even the computer wasn't coming up with anything. Then last night, while we were working late, there was a movie on the TV that was playing in the room. Some youngsters in the movie were singing the popular childrens song "Old McDonald had a farm" and then it hit us. E-I E-EYE "O".

Put it together and it spells DANO!!! I'll bet Judge Dread would concur with us that we got it.
