It's MONDAY! That means its MMM time, and today that means you will be treated to a bit of Tomfoolery.
For those practiced in Metas this will be about a 1.5, and even if you are not a frequent solver probably no more than a 2 Apparently this is playing much more like a 3 or 4 difficulty level, and for that I apologize. If you are not a big fan of British TV or PBS you will probably need Mr. Google to gain any traction on this. I have to thank all my testers who include Wendy Walker and Claudia Totino, Al Sisti and Peter Abide. I also want to thank Peter for the title which is a MUCH better one than I had originally.
All the usual "rules" will apply regarding nudges (Wednesday), leaderboard and PMs for assistance or clarification.
So now I invite you to sit back, pick up your pen/pencil and paper or favorite electronic device and get to solving this week's MMM
