I forgot that today was Friday and I was wondering what puzzles I could do today. First, I signed up for Jangler’s puzzles (Jeffrey Harris) which had a meta today. Then I realized that today was Friday and I had Matt’s puzzle. So, I started the year with two metas. That’s a good beginning!

Beam me up!
This week, I can actually understand how e.a. solved in one minute. Didn't do it myself, but I see what I should have done. (And I didn't start anywhere near noon, but that's another matter.)

I get an email every day with Daily Crossword Links and it was listed in there as Jeffrey’s Jottings. If you can’t find it message me an email address and I will forward today’s email which contains the link. The puzzles cost $2/mth and I got a year’s worth of enjoyment out of the first one.

and best hopes that 2021 won't need much 26A to make it better than 2020.

Go to patreon. Type Jeffrey Harris into the "search for creators" box and the first result says "puzzles". I just handed this guy TWO WHOLE DOLLARS based on oldjudge's post, so hopes are high!Dannyvee wrote: ↑Fri Jan 01, 2021 3:57 pmDo you have a link for Jangler’s puzzles?oldjudge wrote: ↑Fri Jan 01, 2021 3:41 pm I forgot that today was Friday and I was wondering what puzzles I could do today.

e.a. is Erik Agard, who often makes a not-so-wild guess as soon as the prompt is posted. In this case it's New Year's Day and the prompt asks for an animal... so I am definitely not at a loss.
