Ryan solves the NYT, Tue 10-13-9
Oy, very fast post today. I slept in a bit too long. It is now 9:28AM, I need to leave at 10:30AM and I won’t be back home until 7AM tomorrow. Don’t ask. Sometimes my life is ridiculous.
First off, the League Championship Series are set.
NLERS
- Ryan Hecht vs. Barry C. Silk, Friend and Confidante to Doug Peterson, Crossword Gentleman and Man About Town (rematch!)
ALERS
- Doug Peterson, Crossword Gentleman and Man About Town vs. The Ottawa Angels of Brazil
Good luck to everybody except Barry.
Today’s puzzle is by Sharon Delorme and features a very funny theme.
ROYAL FLUSH
All the theme answers ended with a euphemism for a toilet.
LITTLE JOHN
LETTER HEAD
HEIR TO THE THRONE
SARDINE CAN
I’m not sure how this theme got past the Sunday Breakfast Test but I’m glad it did.
I got pretty stuck up in the top left corner. I eventually figured it out but:
SALADA?????
Now, I’m not a tea drinker but I’ve heard of the major brands of tea. Or at least I thought I had. I’ve never, ever come into contact in any form with SALADA tea. Is this really a well known brand? What is it doing in my Tuesday puzzle?
Ok, unfortunately, that’s all I have time for today. Fun puzzle. Fun theme. Good times.
Next stop, Wednesday.
