Although we made it to Autumn this weekend, I'm happy to report the SSS will continue on. Since Cap'n Rick got a little artsy with the MMM, I tried my hand with the paint program as well.
The meta answer is a 1966 film.

I just printed this out. My first thought is what color highlighter will even show up? And is Peter getting a kickback from the color cartridge makers?

SSSolved (AAAwesome or FFFantastic) since we are beyond the SSS phase.
A great meta and I did love the coloring.

When I opened the .puz file in puzzazz on my phone, it was all messed up. Numbers in squares that should be black (or pink:) and clues not matching anything. But it looks just right in Across Lite on my Mac, and I have sssolved. Nice one, Peter!

The color gremlins messed with the Puzzazz app on Apple iPhones. I can’t try to fix it until this afternoon.

Whew! Beat the nudges by a hair.... maybe I should have spent my sunday morning working on this rather than writing a long essays in the other thread about my confusion over what "classic brand" is supposed to mean...
Gotta remember theSSSe exist. Every sunday I remember too late.
