Here’s a Zen koan for a puzzle maker: can every terrible dad joke be made into a puzzle? The answer is probably unknowable. But, I’m about to find out.

Looking for more puzzles? The Hub Crossword (Sunday puzzles by me and Joon Pahk) and Marching Bands year NINE begins on Monday. So if that To Do list needs even more puzzles, you know what to do.

Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
