Triple stacks today, all common enough. Not a "one" in sight. Here's the ranking:

"Part of many a car's dashboard" (CDSLOT) seems a tad dated, and this from someone who has both a CDSLOT and a cassette player in his car. TROMP (Trudge) is fun. "Its first sale was a flamingo-print zip pouch for $8" (ETSY) was some interesting trivia. As was "Queen Elizabeth owned over 30 of them" (CORGIS), but it makes me wonder what the exact number was. 

I guessed AYEayecapn for "Mate's reply" (AYECAPTAIN), and tried SpOOKed for "In a state" (SHOOKUP), but things righted themselves fairly quickly.

Overall, a quick, decent Friday.
