Today’s Brain Game is like a 3 x 6 crossword; enjoy!
Treat each of the six clues below like “across” clues in a crossword puzzle – use the blanks next to each clue to solve it with a three-letter word. If you’ve done so correctly, the letters you’ve used should also spell three six-letter words running down the puzzle. Good luck!

DAB
AM?
NA?
UZI
BOB (think “wade” as in wade in a pool)
