"Sound Logic" November 17, 2023

#1

Post by Wendy Walker »

Hello, Muggles!

I have the pleasure of filling in for @Bob cruise director this week.

What a banner week we just had! Long-time Muggles topped the leaderboard of both the WSJ puzzle (@Bob cruise director) AND the MGWCC (@BarbaraK, who submitted at 12 noon on the dot), AND @Toby won the Mug!

SOUND LOGIC | By Matt Gaffney

The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a movie of the 1980s.

I'm ashore. I don't believe that @MikeyG finished the grid in 4 minutes, but I'm not done either.

Ashore! I'll take a G&T please. Predict a crowded beach.

Ashore, the fastest I've ever made it!! I knew it halfway through solving the grid. No Sunday night nudge-begging for this guy. I'll have a gin and ginger ale, the preferred drink of my grandmother who just passed. <3

On shore! Page 1 for the first time ever, and got it before finishing the grid! I suspect it’ll be a crowded beach this week. Sipping a sangria & giggling a little. What a great movie. The hubs just told me he’s never seen it!! Guess what we’re watching tonight!?
