"Lounge Around"

#1

Post by Schmeel »

It's Monday morning, Muggles!

This week's puzzle is titled "Lounge Around". It's not too difficult - more to amuse than amaze. As you'll probably see with ease, it's a meta for... well, a metaphor. I hope the meta answer won't be left behind in the cushions!

Thanks to Peter Abide, Al Sisti, and Joe Ross for helping make this happen.

I'll be on a trip to the Dead Sea area on Tuesday and Wednesday, so I'm not sure about posting a daily leaderboard. I'll see how it is using my phone.
Nudges, which probably won't be needed, will be posted on Wednesday.
Reveal on Sunday.

I hope you enjoy!

Very fun, thanks. Reminded me of the time I walked by the answer to 61A on a suspension bridge in Ithaca.
