Meta in 2:00 (WSJ record!), grid in 6:05. I think I can say I'm on dry land when I grok the meta? I'm not 100%, but I'm pretty shore of it.
Less cross words, more crosswords.

Well, after last week's total miss, this one put a smile on my face! Very fun. G&T for me.

Ashore --

I think this one was from the 80's -- but I doubt it's the answer.

If I don't win a mug, I can always make one... ;) but it won't have the same cachet.

On the beach! Must be time for some exotic-sounding cocktail made from all of the various bottles I currently have in the liquor cabinet... ;-)
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta! :shock:
