Yikes. Everyone says it's easy! 
I guess I better put it away, and drive, walk, bathe, sleep or something till I get the AHA!

I think my significant other Mark may have been taken over by another entity. (1) He said, "Hey! Isn't this the week the Music Meta comes out? We need to make time for that!" AND (2) he suggested that we sign up to bring a big healthy green salad to the family Christmas dinner.Amanda Hugginkiss wrote: Thu Dec 02, 2021 5:24 pm Got it with the help of my husband, who says he doesn't like puzzles, but is secretly way better at metas than I am.

I am doing the grid, and I am
Wond'ring who in the world is Lou Gramm.
If he's bluesy at eight,
Then I'll bet he can't wait
For good Isaac to pour him a dram.
(And while you're at it, Isaac, may as well hit me too.)

A Cooper fanatic I'm not.
His movies? I've seen not a lot.
If he waited till eight
To get high, I'd just hate
It if Isaac delayed the next shot.
(Noontime, Isaac. Hit me again.)

Will graciously wave the flag and accept a nudge on this one, I'm afraid I've overthought it and now my head hurts...

I suggest you take your significant other to Dr. Miles Bennell.
