Happy 4th of July eve, everyone! Being a Bostonian, I felt that I needed to create a patriotic meta to mark this special U.S. holiday. The 4th is huge here in Boston with several events around the city culminating in a Boston Pops performance during a magnificent fireworks display. I guess you could say that all of those "bombs bursting in air" provided the inspiration for today's puzzle. I'd like to thank @Abide, @Al Sisti, @boharr, @whimsy, @MarkWoychick, and @Joe Ross for their pretesting and technical help.
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)
Great puzzle, as usual. Stared blankly for a while, then a fun series of aha moments. Thanks!
