But UVULA is nice too.<br /><br />This was a nice puzzle in the sense that few parts of the grid were completely smooth for me, but I also didn't really get stuck. Maybe I'll need to try Friday and Saturday more often.Jim Kingdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01857308320156877253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-41604258036709717462020-05-16T15:10:22.207-04:002020-05-16T15:10:22.207-04:008:05

I dropped both TRANCE and GOATHERD in off of the clues, oddly, but needed a few crosses for YACHTED, a word not often used by me. I entered yoga instead of CAMO at 1D, which slowed the NW fill-in for a time, and needed to really put the thinking cap on for the WAKANDA/WEBER/RAKE crosses, as I've yet to see that movie and don't deal too much in magnetic flux or gambling. Nice end to the week.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
