Beam me up. Nice one! That's all I'll say pre-deadline...
(except it's hard to believe IT WAS FORTY YEARS AGO THIS WEEK.)

40 years ago this week, I was in my dorm room annoyed that they were playing only Beatles songs on the radio, and then . . .
Now whenever I hear multiple songs by the same artist I get nervous.

I chuckled when I got it.
I walked by the Dakota on Sunday, expecting that there'd be a lot of people on the sidewalk. But nobody was there. The doormen were directing them across to the Imagine circle in the Park, which was fairly crowded despite the cold.

Certainly not complaining because I appreciate these immensely, but one minor change could have made this a perfect week 2 in my opinion vs. what I agree was a Week .01

Beamed! Took me a minute to figure out the method, but being a Gen-Xer could do that to you I suppose.

Beam me up. I'm a little sad that neither the WSJ nor the Gaffney put up much of a struggle. My holiday break starts today.
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

Beam me up!
Got this one within a few minutes of starting the grid. Imagine! (Groan. Sorry.)
I was pleased to see this theme. Mr. Lennon remains my very favorite musical artist. He's missed, at least in this headspace, so much.

Beam me up as well. Nice and easy week 2 following an easy week 1. Can't wait to see what is in store for weeks 3 and 4.

I was a toddler when John died and this was still a week .5 puzzle.
