Here’s a 66/36 freestyle crossword starring six intersecting 11-letter entries that make for a wide open midsection. Jeffrey Harris’s Washington Post crossword, “The Post Puzzler No. Can you find it? Answer next week.” I started at the bottom and worked my way up, sounding out each row, until I found When you’re done, there’s one more name spanning almost an entire column. Example: “Take to court + a letter + leaves port” = SUE + “P” + SAILS, or “Soupy Sales.” In the grid, black bars separate the parts. I’m glad I did read the blurb after solving, because it tipped me off to an Easter egg in the grid-” NOTE: Here’s a sequel to a puzzle I made last March.
Pierce Brosnan, Steele, Remington Steele. It’s exactly the sort of wordplay that my brain is fond of: Famous names are broken down into pronounced letter names and words that, when strung together, sound like the name: I loved this theme! I worked the puzzle without reading the explanatory blurb and it didn’t take me any longer than usual. As always, no fact checking has been done.) Given this is a sequel puzzle, and given fill-in bloggers don’t get paid, I will just rerun Amy’s review of the original version, with updates in square brackets as needed. Merl Reagle Sunday crossword solution, 8 2 14 “I’m Not Quite Myself Today 2” Merl Reagle’s syndicated Sunday crossword, “I’m Not Quite Myself Today 2” Thanks to Gareth and Jeffrey for covering the Merl Reagle puzzle and the Sunday LA Times crossword for me! Four stars for the puzzle. I am used to my keyboard shortcuts for accents on the Mac.) Largest-ever crowd for a futbol match in the US of A. My peeps attended without me, as I prefer to avoid places that are too much AROAR (this is a word that is strikingly little used outside of crossword puzzles). There’s AROAR, which I reckon Michigan Stadium was this afternoon with 109,000 soccer fans in attendance at the International Champions Cup match between Man U and Real Madrid. Lots of nice fill–COP CARS, LAST WISH, CAMEL-HAIR coat that’s TAN, SCUSI, ROC-A-FELLA, TACO BELL, BAWDY, LATECOMER, and so forth.
#LIFEBOAT CRANE CROSSWORD CLUE MOVIE#
R-rated movie becomes ARCHIE-RATED MOVIE. TABLE FOR TUCCI, two meets Stanley Tucci. “I GUESS SOCHI” combines Sochi, Russia with “I guess so.” Filthy rich becomes FILTHY RITCHIE, with the “guy” in the clue being capital G Guy Ritchie.
Hardly ever spell that name right the first time through. So no thorough theme rundown! This laptop is hot and this hotel room lacks a desk in the room with daylight.) (Black Ink also lets me copy and paste clues, which Across Lite does not. Add a “chee” sound somewhere in these familiar phrases and you get some oddball new phrase, clued accordingly. Which means I had no hint to figuring out the theme, which is well executed and not one of those achingly obvious themes.
#LIFEBOAT CRANE CROSSWORD CLUE WINDOWS#
On vacation with only a Windows laptop, and thus Across Lite … and if this puzzle has a title, I sure can’t find it. I am used to doing puzzles in Black Ink, a Mac-only solving software.
