On shore.
I solved the grid online last night and spent the evening staring without seeing anything. Not even bunny tracks. I reworked the print version in the morning and the rabbit jumped out and bit me. A beautiful meta!
Wishing all the muggles a healthy and safe weekend.

Still on the boat, having just finished that brutal grid. I hope what everyone is saying is true, and the meta is easier than the grid. I know I haven't seen the path yet, but hopefully I will tomorrow - brain is too hazy right now.
As much money and life as you could want! The two things most human beings would choose above all — the trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them.

On Friday, the number of muggles on the ship is very soft as many are either just starting or are so busy scurrying down rabbit holes that they have not checked in with Isaac.boharr wrote: ↑Fri Jun 12, 2020 12:41 pmMore than 2.

We have 51 on the ship and 2 on the shore.
I am busy chasing rabbits on the ship for now

Count me amongst the beachcombers! Nice, fairly simple one, I’d say. Happy weekend everyone, and stay safe!

A twister carried me away, and I landed gently ashore.

I am always amazed to REaD how quickly some have HEADED to shore! I WOuld love for meta-inspiration to strike that quickly and then nOD my head in appreciation. I am not one of those PEople--yet (maybe a few more months or years!). Well, baCK to the grind.....and to the grid. I'll see what Isaac has to offER to help grease the wheels in my rusty head.

Enjoying a cold one on the deck after completing the grid and solving the meta in record time! Done & done on a Friday afternoon = awesome.
Enjoy the weekend Muggles. Good luck!

Unlike last week this one is a 100%er. I would be shocked if someone could come up with a justifiable alternative answer like RONALD REAGAN.
