And regarding DEKE, Mr. Kingdon, although I grew up watching the Whalers (Hartford, I think) and the Bruins (Boston) with my father, I was completely unfamiliar with the term until I started solving crossword puzzles several years ago. Now, I must say, I'm extremely familiar with it. And in the grocery store a few weeks back, I was picking up some flour when I hear a woman say "Huh, they're still out of flour!" I almost pointed out the ample supplies of flours other than all purpose bleached white flour to her, but didn't. I took my whole wheat flour and left the aisle. I thought "DOGMA" was an amusing movie, where Alanis Morissette played God. I don't believe the MAGI had roles in that one.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-72859520705200765872020-04-28T01:36:51.261-04:002020-04-28T01:36:51.261-04:00I would hope a neighbor THROWSOPEN a window to cat...I would hope a neighbor THROWSOPEN a window to catch the AROMA of all the bread we are baking. So much breas. You know how you've been having trouble buying flour at the store? Well it's at my house. Sorry, where was I? Oh a crossword. Kind of nice to see SCAR clued with something other than The Lion King. Let's, eee, and I once had a heart THROB who had gone to school in PROVO. But I suppose my favorite is DEKE. Just because it was such an everyday word when I grew up watching hockey, and well this is probably the first time I saw the word in a long time.Jim Kingdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01857308320156877253noreply@blogger.com
