I figured this puzzle was as good a time as any to return the “Huh?” rating difficulty. I think it ties in with the subject matter.
Share the puzzle. New one on Monday.
Perfect pic. On a puzzle high – solving this puzzle made my face melt!
I hadn’t heard all of those, but enough to get the idea early. Seemed easier than normal to me, but great fun.
Beautiful . . . thanks for this one! Perfect picture, too.
It was definitely easy. Does this make me a bad person?
It makes you insane. Not bad, just crazy.
this one was both hilarious and timely.
Loved it! I solved on paper using tiger blood for ink.
Absolutely hysterical. Some of the things he’s said are so funny and some are just flat-out what-universe-are-you-in disturbing…
This puzzle is winning! #tigerblood
I think I had more flat out fun solving this than any other puz in over 35 years of solving. (Sheesh, you’d think I’d be better at it.) Thanks BEQ!
(EASY on the BEQ scale)
Very fun puzzle, Brendan. Great clue for 18-Down!
You couldn’t have worked “Adonis” into the clue for 20 across? 🙂
Thomas Jefferson would have kicked his ass…
if ever I saw an XWP that needed to be annotated, this was it. I got to know where these CS quotes came from.
Saw this on CNN (even though I go to The Guardian every day for crosswords, I don’t actually read the thing!): http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/quiz/2011/mar/01/muammar-gaddafi-charlie-sheen-quiz
My Adonis DNA ripped this puzzle apart and spat it out. Lots of fun.
I’m takin’ my brain to South Beach.
Thank. You.
I have to say this was Easy (because I whipped through it, which NEVER happens) but I have a small quibble. A ‘dragged fishing net’ is a SEINE; TROLL is a verb, and it means trailing a baited fishing line behind a moving vessel.
Enjoyed reading the amazing quotes to my husband, adding, “That BEQ is CURRENT!”
14:14! And I usually can’t even solve them 100%. Clearly I’ve been spending to much time with “cats quoting charlie sheen,” “dear charlie sheen advice column” and “charlie sheen/ muamar gaddafi/ glenn beck
quizzes”
Also, the first definition of TRAWL at dictionary.com is:
–noun
1. Also called trawl net . a strong fishing net for dragging along the sea bottom.
I probably could have found a Charlie Sheen quote for just about every entry in there.
Who’s that? Brooown!
(I didn’t know you came here.)
TRAWL! What th’? How did I screw THAT up? I can’t find the sheet with that puzzle on it, so I must have printed on the back already. TROLL fit, generally speaking, and I may not have even checked the Downs. (Thanks, Brownie. Heck of a job.) Shoot. Now I have a Fail instead. BEQ kills again.
