And Gene AUTRY was one of Mom's favorites, so that's nice.<br /><br />And I liked the OWLET clue. How can you be mad at an OWLET?

Yes, no revealer necessary, and CHEESESOFINE is certainly the best of the bunch. I didn't love the OWLET clue, but that's probably because the answer is such crosswordese. And I liked the SHAMWOW/ISUZU pairing better than the IKEA/IPHONES because I loved the SHAMWOW commercials and am not a fan of either IKEA or any i-products (I'm indifferent regarding ISUZU). And how about how HILO is in the grid along with the aforementioned ALOHA? And what about the "Lima's home" pair of OHIO (who knew?) and PERU? Very nice, IMO. OOZE next to POUR is a nice touch.
