COUPLES ONLY | By Matt Gaffney
The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a four-letter word.
Couples Only - spreadsheet
Good luck with the meta and the grid
And a special note. This week's MEOW (Madhatter Enigma on Wednesday) was not posted until 7 pm Wednesday. It is titled "The Optimist" and is by our own Optimist @DrTom
And the good doctor gave a prenudge nudge (kind of like a prequel for metas). "Fair warning that this is not a puzzle that will spell out an answer, you will have to use some deduction to solve the meta. As such it may be a 2 or 2.5, but once you see it you will know if you have the correct answer. "
I always like that "once you have the answer you will know you have the answer". Isn't this the definition of a tautology? LOL - we love you anyway doc.
Enjoy both the MEOW and the WSJ metas. A twofer

On the beach! And made it to page 1! The cabana boy is stocking up for the big crowds (possibly hordes) that are expected momentito.
