Well, He Means...

#1

Post by Bird Lives »

It’s Palm Monday., time for the annual MMM Easter puzzle. I confess that my knowledge of the holiday is limited mostly to things like dye tablets and the smell of vinegar and eggs that for some reason become “deviled.” It was only recently that I discovered that Stations of the Cross is not in fact a reference to those angry political AM talk radio sites.

My simple knowledge leads to a simple meta. This puzzle has no Easter eggs hidden, not even under the cushions of that couch you will soon be leaving; nor will you be chasing chocolate bunnies down rabbit holes. In fact, the meta is so un-tricky, that I can’t think of any good nudges. So if you would care to offer nudge suggestions, serious or silly, along with your answer, I will be forever in your debt. Well, maybe not forever, but at least till Easter Monday.


The answer is something associated with Easter.

PM me with your answer or click the Crosshare link and solve there for immediate gratification.
