So what is today's connection answer for game #373

Drum roll, please

Today's puzzles, according to the Connection guide, are very ahead in presenting obvious clues that, on the simpler side, should match 

If you are like me, the casino will catch your eye and you will try to match the casino like things 

But what really caught my eye were blocks, shields and screens The cover was at first glance, and the green was my first submission 

Despite still wants Casino to become things, the yellow category fell into place with power, channels and volume I didn't want the menu to be the last word, but it was the only one that made sense Voila, yellow down

The blue fell quickly after as I saw umbrellas, cherries and olives But when the cocktail was over, and sometimes before, I remembered that it was fun to poke cherries and olives with a small plastic sword and umbrella 

It left the Casino of course, Diamond, Quantum and tomorrow I did not immediately make a James Bond connection, but combining three other categories, I think I will now have my future Bond Movie Marathon

Today's puzzle, I was struggling for a connection answer, the clues would not fit together It's like that sometimes 

Soon, I was delivering a package and had yellow almost immediately  From there I had 3 of the green categories pretty quickly The problem I struggled with was looking for another word with "lips" before and not retreating to consider what else those 3 things in common are 

Oddly enough, the word "predicament" never came into my mind to be considered a blue category For a long time I've been trying to force angles into the mix, but never trust two long words that fall into the same category  Technically, an angle is usually a union of 2 lines that form a triangular point, so it can be measured in degrees 

I got the blue category after fixing it to the purple category Degree of temperature, degree of education The angle made the most sense and I couldn't fit the crime into the other line

Sometimes the clue comes easily and it's a refreshing swim, but today the loops that this brain needs to make were of higher order
