On shore following a two-week dry spell. A Wicked Hazy or a Boston Lager would be in order.

I just hope that if it had to happen, it happened after your return from your fun trip!

Ashore. I get to start a brand new streak -- one of the perks of not solving last week. And "One other thing . . .", this is my 52nd encounter with metas -- marking the year on an upper. And rabbittlessly so, which is even better.

I think I waded ashore in knee deep water. Didn't even need a swimsuit this week.

A quick swim for Darth, and time now to harass the Naboo natives. It seems the Gungans are enjoying Trivia Night at the cantina. Beam me up a Scotch... no, wait, that's not right! A Wicked Hazy then.

Now that page one is filled, I would like to clarify that I do not at all "like" the fact that you have a fractured shoulder - I was just admiring your dedication and solving skills. I hope you recover quickly!
Thank you. Minor fracture. No surgery. Just a sling and PT.

Well, I've submitted. I'm only 50% sure, so I am very much afraid that that ends my current run... :(
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:

Oh no that would have been far too convenient. It happened on the first night of the trip.
