I’m sure a goodly amount of the blog readers have been hit hard with this stuff. Stay warm, will ya? Oh, and so much for that blizzard Boston was supposed to get. If I could do it all over again, I’d’ve been a meteorologist. Those guys (and sports analysts) are almost unilaterally wrong with their predictions yet manage to keep their jobs. Amazing work if you can get it.
More ACPT stuff next week. It starts next Friday, you know that, right? If you’re on the East coast or want a road trip, come on down! Snowpocalypse be damned!
Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
I took several meteorology classes in college and one thing they teach you is that you are never wrong. If you call for a 90% chance of rain and it does not rain, you were still right. It is a beautiful thing.
lol theme answers, but remind me to never go out to dinner with you if “i got this” means OWE ME.
Impressive that you were able to whip this out in such a timely way. Better make up a couple more….since there doesn’t seem to be a let-up. And remember– when big snow storms hit in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama…nobody can do anything about it. No plows, no salt trucks, and no clue (for most folks) how to drive in it. Here in Central Arkansas, we are just hoping it will melt sometime next month.
Funny stuff. Just curious, did you add NMI before or after the debate on LA Crossword Confidential yesterday? Either way, well done.
I was unaware of that debate. So … before?
I really got a kick out of “Viking Eric’s middle name” You and Eric are both guys who like to use their middle name!
I assume that IPA is India Pale Ale. Is this well known or was it the least obscure of the IPA acronyms listed by Google?
I see. It all started when someone said NMI is “stupid”. It was a really heavy debate.
I’m guessing you don’t drink a lot of beer 🙂
You’re right. I am strictly an ade person. 🙂
Sorry for so many posts but I am having trouble concentrating on what I am supposed to be doing. I just noticed that there is something wrong with the 17A clue. A clue should not contain any part of the answer but 17A has a blank which is what the answer begins with.
I like the idea of No First Name. Just a middle and a last. N.F.I. Like if the movie maker had been named NFI Night Shyamalan instead of E. Night Shyamalan. Very nice.
Salo at 5:24, hilarious comment.
So, so sad about CEIL. Because out of all the words I could learn, that’s the one I’ll now remember.
