It's been a hot minute (three weeks!) since I solved the Meta. Happy to have it this week. I'm ready to enjoy the weekend and a margarita!

On shore. Didn’t love all the proper names, especially the two people I don’t know crossing the capital of Estonia.

No rabbit holes on the way, but I do see something that’s not meta related but I expect will give people fits

Wow, first guess on mechanism worked. Done and done. G&T for me!

A little slow today, but done.

Ode to a T (Bill)

Jerry Powell said, 5.3!
In other words, some cash for free
Finally some for you and me
So I rushed down to buy a T.

Then this dude keeps raising rates
To the level everyone hates
But I was out buying skates
Not subject to taxes by the states

All year long, with energy
I sought to get my cash for free
Bills of varying maturity
Keep it up, Jay, was my plea

But it wasn’t what it seemed
Now the bills are all redeemed
Zero coupon, had I dreamed?
Apparently vainly had I schemed.

On shore. Woodford neat, please.

On shore! Pouring my wine!

Solved! Loved that one

Tried several things and came up "short." Perhaps we need to "change" our approach. Another round, please, Isaac.

Ashore! Found it pretty tough but nice aha moment

Ashore! A tricky one, which makes figuring it out a bit sweeter!

Rita and George

Got it! I’m safe on the beach, Guinness in hand!
Such a smart puzzle! But one small inelegance I’m wondering if anyone else was bothered by …

On the beach!

Got it! 5th thing I tried (or maybe the 6th). Whew.

On shore!
Another thinkiator!

Finally on shore! Life got in the way of this one.

Solved and ashore! Fun puzzle. Happy weekend to all!

On the beach! Negroni for me!

On the beach!!!! That was a fun one

Yikes, I forgot it was Thursday! Anyway I was in a meeting. But I'm ashore now after a reasonably short dogpaddle.
