Not gonna happen. See everyone next week. A zissen pesach to those who celebrate.
I am right there with you - this one is simply beyond me. This isn’t one I’m going to pick back up tomorrow and suddenly see the light.
It’s been a good run - 18 weeks (granted I did guess the Marie Curie one rather than solve it) which is 13 weeks longer than my previous streak. Somehow I always knew it would be Matt who ended my streak.
I got to this late due to Zoom meetings, but even so it took me some time to catch on to what was going on. Now that I see it I am astonished at what Matt is able to construct.
On shore with possibly my fastest swim ever. The grid took me a while, but I was pretty sure I knew the answer early on. Cracking open an extra special beer for this one, a Boulevard double bourbon barrel aged imperial stout with chocolate, vanilla, and coffee. Cheers!
On shore. Pretty impressive construct. This was a team tag. Wife was driving and she pulled me back from the brink of a serious rabbit hole on the way home from volleyball practice. I would have followed it to the ends of the earth and back. Really nice Matt.

I thought that the answer for 53D had a "T" in front of it. At least that is what I hear before NFL games.
Ashore after finding the confirmation I was looking for. Not sure if I've seen this mechanism before.
First time I'm on page three. Perhaps I'll have some room to stretch out on the beach for at least a couple of days before the weekend tourists arrive?
