Contest time on BEQ.com. And why not, I say. So you know the drill, solve the crossword then solve meta. The correct answer is a six word phrase. When you know the answer, email it to me. One randomly selected winner gets a copy of my new book “Marching Bands.” (Get yours today with that link). Deadline for the contest is end of the day Wednesday April 30th.

Good luck to all. Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
