Regardless, this puzzle was enjoyable. I didn't mind ENHALO, but LIAISE? I did like the mention of Johnny OLSON, but, like Horace (probably), was less than enthusiastic about 114A "You can talk to me privately" (IMALONE). Frannie must have loved SADDLESORE, no? And the NYT raciness made an appearance with LIBIDO, and I always like a mention of TERIGARR. There wasn't, on balance, much in this offering that was OFFENSIVE to me.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-41567010321198257982013-08-18T20:10:46.293-04:002013-08-18T20:10:46.293-04:00I enjoyed the inside-out nature of this one, altho...I enjoyed the inside-out nature of this one, although according to Rex, it's not such a big deal. I had a hard time getting into the middle (all the edges were filled first, starting with OFFENSIVE). The two Gs of DOGG were not helpful, and I wanted the drinks to be packed on ice, rather than INICE. I liked all the three nine-letter answers next to each other. And RAVIOLI was a nice touch.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.com
