THEMELESS MONDAY: [ ACROSS LITE][ PDF]
PROGRAMS: [Across Lite] [Adobe Reader]
Beer for breakfast? Nonsense, this pic was from last night. My celebratory drink after the end of the successful Marching Bands Kickstarter. Thanks again to all who were able to back. For those of you who could care less about those puzzles, well, this is the last time you’re going to hear about them for a while. Unless you do care about them, then you might enjoy my mini-sized Marching Bands I just wrote for the Boston Globe. Have at it.
So this is the 311st themeless puzzle on this here site, good gravy. I can say for sure that there was not a chance in the world that I was going to link to a 311 video today to celebrate. C’mon. Don’t you know anything about me and my snobbish taste in music. But anyway, 68 worder, which seems a bit low as I thought this grid felt pretty standard shape-wise. Started at the top and worked around the grid in a clockwise fashion. Favorite clue in the bunch? 27-Down. Enjoy.
Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.
How would anyone know one across??
By living in Kissimmee, FL, for example, where everything is written in both English and Spanish. Cuidado!
Indeed, you don’t have to live in places where signs are generally in English and Spanish. Many of the little yellow “wet floor” signs look something like this nowadays:

(I note that that particular picture’s photographer appears to have been from Milwaukee.)
1 Across was a gimme for me, and my favorite clue in a long time. Every time I see one of those signs, I say “piso mojado” to no one in particular. I also feel like it could be the subtitle to my autobiography.
And kudos to BEQ for putting “On the wagon” directly above “Lounge bars.” Fantastic.
How does such a great cruciverbslist make the “could care less” error?
