It's Wednesday! Here are some nudges:

1. When looking for a meta answer there are a few place to start your search, for instance the long entries in the grid. In this case try 39A.

2. But there's more than one place to look to help find an answer, for instance the clues.

3. Can you find 39A of 39A in the clues?

I hope these help!

no nudges needed; just late to the game. Off the couch. Smooth grid (no googling!), and a classic metanism. This is one I can hand to newbies!

Also, our trip to Israel is ON for Oct-Nov! Excited to come see your neck of the woods!
