Another Indie 500 is in the books, and another title for Mr. Roger Barkan. That’s two for Roger, who has officially won half of those tournaments. So, golf claps all around there. And another round of applause for the folks who put the tournament together, please and thank you. Those are some good people who run that tournament, which is blossoming into quite the event it looks like. Someday, eventually, I’ll make it down there to D.C. Anyway, when you’re done here, please go over there and pick yourself up some puzzles will ya? All right.
Oh yeah, I should mention that at said Indie 500, yours truly was awarded their Spirit Award. Excuse me, the FireballCrosswords.com Indie Spirit Award. Where would we be without corporate sponsorship? Anyway, the award acknowledged the blood sweat toil and tears of my decade plus of independent puzzlin’. I was flattered to be acknowledged, and so I made this thank you video posted above. Alas, tournament director Erik Agard told me they had AV problems and so while the video was seen, my mellifluous voice wasn’t heard by those in attendance. Get with the program, kiddos! You think these acceptance speeches write themselves? So here it is again.
Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.
