Here are the daily clues for the Tanga puzzles this week. To see the hint, highlight the space to the right of the date.
I don't give away answers here, just a small hint each day to help get you started or past a rough patch. If you want stronger hints, you can check the blog on the Tanga site itself, which is chock full of spoilers.
While I avoid giving away the answers on this page, be warned that there may be spoilers in the comments to this post, so open those with care.
Good luck!
January 29: I had so much trouble with this puzzle it made me want to fold on several occasions.
January 30: The picture at top is key.
January 31: Tough one to hint without giving it away. Don't worry about the meaning of the words, but every word counts.
February 1: I just kept thinking of that 1971 James Caan and Billy Dee Williams movie.
February 2: Oh brother, a couple of these were tough to work out but the directions were pretty clear.
February 3: It helps to open up a clearer version of the table. The highest number you'll find is 26, which is important but not for the reason that might first spring to mind. I found myself swearing *&! as I struggled through this, but in the end, this puzzle hit the spot.
February 4: And this one reminds me of the gatekeeper in the Wizard of Oz.

I had two problems with yesterday's. J/D was one, and the implication that the A. in B.A. Barracus is his middle name. The lack of an anagram indicator, yeah, that too.
Preparing to slap my forehead: Who's Everett's partner? (2/2)
Jon, no forehead slapping deserved. That was the one I had to backsolve and even then it was near impossible.
From "O Brother, Where Art Thou" (another "road" movie I guess), one of Everett's travel companions was Delmar.
I tried to include that in my hint, but I guess it only stands out if you already know the answer.
You're too clever for me! And Tanga, in this case, fails again. Everett and Delmar are not a pair, but two-thirds of a trio. And not an especially well known trio at that. I have to remember to lower my expectations over there. Further.
