I make a point of NOT wearing clothing with writing or logos on it, but I would make an exception in this case!

Needed a small nudge just to get Step 1. Wasn’t too bad after that; seems 100% to me.

Cosmo, when you saw the puzzle title, did your mind go straight to the "Seinfeld" episode where that saying was used? Mine did!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Like many others, I am on a beach. If it's the wrong one, at least there's a lot of good company here!
Happy to give nudges. If you notice I've solved, please tell me about avenues you've explored so I can nudge you in the right direction and not off a cliff.

Solved. Only one answer pops in my head, not sure what else it could be. Usually when I decide to noodle on it, I forget to submit an answer. Which only slightly decreases my chance of winning a mug ironically.

Easy grid this week. I find the metas easy too, but not till Monday mornings.
Still at sea, skipper.

For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

The aha moment on this one was a little wild.

got through the grid and ..... WAM right into a brick wall, and now I'm going to need to put it down and deal with a week 4 Gaffney puzzle.
Isaac, I'll have a double Tito's and soda with a lime please..... and keep 'em coming going to be a rocky weekend.

Sheesh, you guys are always one-upping me. I can't even feel good about solving the meta....because others have found not one, but two, answers. (I knew that sentence needed commas but had no idea where to put them. One of the grammar experts can enlighten me).
As for how sure I am? I actually am pretty confident. But 2 more pieces would have made me feel totally confident. (But probably then all the meta-wizards on here would be complaining that it was too easy.)

Mama - would you mind keeping your cold and wind to yourself. Here in NE we had 25 and 27 the last two mornings and the wind has not stopped gusting to 40 or soMamaE wrote: ↑Thu Apr 22, 2021 5:51 pm I am in that same state - about to submit, 95% sure it is correct...but definitely not a super hard click on the last step. Also see some other items in the puzzle that may point to confirmation of my answer, but we shall see.
It's cold and windy here in Maryland, so I think I'll have an irish coffee with homemade whipped cream

LOL - I think we have all been sequestered a bit too long when we are discussing the POE transgressions.yourpalsal wrote: ↑Thu Apr 22, 2021 5:52 pmMy pal Al, did you not get Wendy’s memo about Page One Encroachment? You only need one of those coveted 20 slots to announce you’re ashore. Taking a second slot is a Guinness menace...

I can only come up with one answer (and it does make sense) but I'm only 90% sure. Wondering if a 100%er would care to message me so I can run it by you for a thumbs up/thumbs down? Given all the uncertainty here, if I'm wrong, I'd like to keep working on it.

I feel I'm in the same boat. The problem is that if I reject that answer and try to do the logical alternative next step, nothing appears to pop out at me.mheverson wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 10:34 am I can only come up with one answer (and it does make sense) but I'm only 90% sure.

I was looking forward to a humorous and witty comment from you, but OK. When I saw the pic, my first thought was, "What would @Bob cruise director say?" I guess I’ll never know....Bob cruise director wrote: ↑Fri Apr 23, 2021 10:38 amMeg - I would not touch that one with a ten foot pole

I'm calling myself ON SHORE, though I will wait to submit. I an slightly hesitant about my answer for one small reason, but will not say more. I thought the path to the solution was great fun that included several AHA moments!
