Every time I see the $5 dollar bill clue FIN is my first thought, until I remember that ABE is the current lingo. But when I read Sam Corbin’s opening comment about the Times puzzle being over 75 years old I realized that since I started doing the puzzle when I was in high school in the early 60’s (and the Times cost a nickel) I’ve been there for most of those years. Now I give a subscription to the games app to my grandson for his birthday and we talk about interesting puzzles.

Interesting that apres ski, not a very common entry, appears here today and apres ski quaff also appears on WSJ puzzle today!
