If its Imelda Marcos then its because La is some butterly species. And Folder = Manila. And Imelda Marccos who is from Manila is known as the Iron Butterfly.
dont think DKCS is online - am answering on his behalf. if Hitler is right do not expect points. If it is adolf hitler then u get Adolf Ler as anagram and Hit must be an a.g.i. This will sort of be like the bend it like beckham logic
Well, I think she won the title of 'Miss Manila' in 1953. (just before her marriage to Mr. Marcos). Well 'La' according to me is an indicator that the 'person' maybe feminine.

The Rules
1. I'll give you a cryptic clue. Your job will be to decode it. 2. The cryptic clue may use an arcane code or a code you might already be aware of. Your challenge will be to pick the right code to crack open my cryptic clue. You can take the help of the net to get up to speed about the arcane codes. 3. Usually, the level of difficulty might offer you a hint about whether to use an arcane code or not. 4. There are many levels of difficulty. The highest level is called codi5 you can't crack it. The level of difficulty will be indicated using tags. 5. You get a day to solve a puzzle. The first person to crack a puzzle gets 5 points or a fiver. Sometimes, I might use my discretion and award 10 points to the deserving. 6. Puzzles that haven't been solved will be labeled as Unsolved. The answers for the same will never be disclosed.
IMELDA MARCOS
ReplyDeleteAnantha, could you check #66.
ReplyDeletehmm...i am guessing Q took manila but La Manila is it always a reference to Imelda ?
ReplyDeleteTrying another angle - anagram is Falderol which means Trumpery - so Donald Trump?
Adolf Hitler ???
ReplyDeleteLa Chemise Lacoste
ReplyDeletePerson = Rene Lacoste?
If true, then please split points with pbzeppelin.
everyone above needs to give their logic. else no points.
ReplyDeleteFolder = Chemise in French. Hence La Chemise. La Chemise Lacoste or the brand Lacoste was founded by Rene Lacoste. Hence RENE LACOSTE.
ReplyDeletego on Mr 99 !

ReplyDeleteLa Folder ==> Miss Manila ==> Hence Imelda Marcos
ReplyDeletebut Q she did not win the pageant and there are many Miss Manilas post her too - tho she may be most famous
ReplyDeleteand while La is feminine pronoun..it is not used for women :-)
Well, I think she won the title of 'Miss Manila' in 1953. (just before her marriage to Mr. Marcos).
ReplyDeleteWell 'La' according to me is an indicator that the 'person' maybe feminine.
