This week's WSJ contest is titled "A TALE OF TWELVE CITIES" by Matt Gaffney

The answer to this week's contest is an obscure small town in Oklahoma.

Good luck with the grid and the meta.

And congratulations to all of our muggles who ran in the Boston Marathon on Monday - an incredible accomplishment especially as it was a bit too warm for running.

Ashore, and I did finish the grid.
The site is just a web page, a meeting place, a clubhouse - it's the group that's special.
