While working on the grid, I was wondering if 46A is where they sell new and used dromedaries? Or should I ask @DrTom

I was gonna go with something "Kennedy"-related, but I thought that would be too Hitchcockian. :D

Ahoy Cap'n! Just reporting to note that you can't spell "nautical" without "Utica." That is all.

Ahoy all you courageous captains. I too have kicked my couch into the briny.
I really liked this one. Cap'n Rick runs a tight meta-ship, as usual.

Off the couch with a lift assist. Sorry I needed it but at least my nudger saved most of the aha moment for me.

There is a backlog of 144(+/-) for you to work on. That's a gross achievement!
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.
