I consider them to be more of an 80's band, but then, I didn't really pay any attention to them in those years, either. The "SPACED" clue was a nice one, I agree.

For some reason, I let myself write in Ozzie since I thought "Be half-asleep had to be "snooze." When I think about it more, I know it doesn't quite work. Horace, you don't know the great Hall and Oates classic "Sara Smile"??? I thought 1-down SPACED for "Like this" was very clever and original. Enjoyed PILL for "Hard to tolerate sort." Mostly, though, this one was fun because of the quote. I read "on which Stephen Colbert commented" and I was excited to find out what it was. Granted, the answer was slightly disappointing, but sometimes the anticipation is better than the payoff. Agree that EARTHS is very good.englishteacher59https://www.blogger.com/profile/16790678319090827125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-26700833344243154862013-03-24T15:08:56.649-04:002013-03-24T15:08:56.649-04:00And it's because of you, Sanderson, that yar d...And it's because of you, Sanderson, that yar does make me think of her.Horace Fawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04676932991883111336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-86323669181667964762013-03-24T14:37:08.947-04:002013-03-24T14:37:08.947-04:00My, she was yar...My, she was yar...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04365867681557594076noreply@blogger.com
