I'm surprised that Colum has yet to see the RINGCYCLE in part or whole. Was it not put on that much in NYC when you were there full-time? I enjoyed all of the theme entries, and I'd probably rate them in a similar manner to Colum's list. I remember ENCARTA, and may have even used it once or twice. That was before the internet was as fast and sometimes-useful as it is today, and I seem to recall having to load the program onto my hard drive via some sort of disk, perhaps a floppy. I haven't had much chance to be a SNOWSKIER this year, as I do enjoy the cross-country variety, but there's still time, if only we'd get a cold snap with some snow. Good clue for SIDEONE (123A Where first tracks are found); I wasn't quite expecting that. PERFECTO is great, as is JOYRIDE (which I never take any more except in my boat in the summer, but even that is somewhat rare). The rest of the puzzle is ATPAR with nothing particularly surprising in the MIX, although we normally hear ARREAR with an "s" on the end, don't we?Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.com
