"Some Real Duds In There" - August 27, 2021

Ashore….I think there’s gonna be a huuuuge wait for that cabana boy though!

While we're waiting, let's see if Armond can find us a more secluded spot... (just seeing if there are any other White Lotus fans here )

Whatever we do I do not want to go out on the sunset cruise LOL

We have to ask for a better beach.

Due largely to recent struggles I started by trying to back solve. For some reason my broad searches did not include the answer. I went back to base one after being frustrated with how easy this was supposed to be and found the answer quickly. And now Google confirmed it! ON THE BEACH. But it was a long swim because I insisted on wearing water wings.

Ashore! My second time ever! Thanks for an easy one - these are just right for me!

[MarkWoychick]

Ashore…of course, I thought I was last week, too. But I think I’ve got it.

[rosiegirl]

On shore! It has been a long time since I made it there on the first day...and without some nudging. Hope I am on the right beach!

[Jeremy Smith]

On shore! Getting ready for a Week 4 Gaffney tomorrow.

[Bob cruise director]

I will be busy tomorrow as we are already on page 8.

On shore with no googling however I had to ask my wife about the film as I am no better with movies than I am with TV shows.

[TeamDoubleTow]

We are . Hopefully not a pageant.

[woozy]

Back on my game. Ashore.

(Wish I had started earlier as this was a very quick solve [maybe my quickest] but it had already been up for over 3 hours before I started.)

More my type of thing (albeit it kinda easy). Like it far better than "this weeks answer is a k-letter word".

[whimsy]

It was gratifying to solve quickly instead of flail about for once. What's mugglespeak for flail about or for solve quickly? What's with the beach?

You need this.

solved - at least it didn't say well known

The first step was to figure out which title was correct. The one on the WSJ site or the one on the puzzle. This is not a spoiler.

Hmmm.... when it was accidently posted was it posted under a different title? Purely out of curiosity what title?

Late start but a quick solve this week.

Ashore.. Social distancing will be tough this week... Glad I brought my mask.

Same title.

WSJ online said “dudes”. PDF said “duds”.

Ha! I can see that would be very confusing and .... different!

"Some real dudes in there"... leads to interesting ideas .....

[meekmouse]

Had an 45 minute roadtrip to work on this one and wasn't expecting to find myself on the beach before arriving... A good start to the weekend!

[SReh26]

Since no one needs a nudge this weekend, lmk if you have any other questions or problems I can help with.

What's the meaning of life?

Should I refinance or get a reverse mortgage?

Lease or buy a car?
