	Nice quiz, but I don't like "Deceased" as a clue for "late"...deceased really implies "dead" and I think you could have a much better clue for late..."tardy" for example.

	A mirage is a hallucination, not a delusion. And "chicken" seems to imply the food or the animal, versus "coward".

	This is fun, but I think some of your definitions are a little off. A floozy is a woman who sleeps around a lot, but it's not usually used to refer to someone who does it for money. And a mirage isn't a delusion (or a hallucination, as patchy said above) -- it's an optical effect created when light is bent by temperature differences in the air, which can be documented on camera. (Do a Google image search if you want pictures.)

	@object_holder Actually, if you look in the dictionary (for example, www.m-w.com for Merriam-Webster), you'll see mirage has more than one definition, but it even says "Synonyms: See DELUSION"
