Only a couple of minutes, but I may have missed the point.

Someone once asked me why I frown so much.

He went on to say ‘It takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile’.

“Exactly”.

Nearly forever. I still don’t know one letter in the last name.
But for all the rest, about 90 seconds. Get that 4th word and it all falls into place.

I did it just like you challenged. Got the first word and it was word by word after that.

I guessed the fifth word incorrectly early and that messed me up for a while. I like devious ones. They are great exercise for your mind.

I did not start with the first word and still picked it up in 3 minutes. Thanks for the helping hand, though. :)
