I thought this was a fairly odd theme that tried a little too hard and ended up insisting upon itself. NLEAST it entertained me for a little longer than a typical Sunday. I prefer sake to SAKI, and SPIT doesn't belong in any grid, but no big complaints from this corner.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-81732082942999769802019-05-19T20:28:05.057-04:002019-05-19T20:28:05.057-04:00I agree with MLou - YEESH is a doggone mess. What ...I agree with MLou - YEESH is a doggone mess. What with trying cRIERS for 64A: They're full of hot air, I had the unholy cIg instead of DIY, and a FWTE ending. Otherwise I love the puzzle. What a crazy idea, and a lot of fun to figure out the phrases with the fish sitting at the top.Colum Amoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15026647589873845732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-55064248233856800702019-05-19T11:08:20.593-04:002019-05-19T11:08:20.593-04:0051:49

Even after I figured out what was going on - actually fairly soon - I had to work and work to find each pesky fish and where it fit in the scheme of things! My first was "Magic Carpet Ride".<br />I wanted the TLW answer to 27A to be "god" - but, not everyone has my taste in deity powers! ha!<br />I had the most trouble along the left side - "Brah", "TBS", "Paul Simon", "Driers", "Yeesh", "Liege", and finally "Ended" all eluded me for way too long!<br />Thanks for the review!<br />~MLouAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
