Hooray for rebuses! Hooray for emus!

Just slightly under my Monday average. Nice puzzle, but way too easy.

45D and 65A crossing at the X is a nice "touch".

Journalistic standards? Not in the New York Times! hi

Nice puzzle. Rachel, you're the best!

Best wishes, Deb! You say you love writing; well I love your writing (and you). Your columns always had the right mix of humor, encouragement, and entertainment. (note the Oxford comma—take that NYT).

Robyn W. never disappoints (me anyway). Beautiful themeless.

And now for a word from your friendly neighborhood pedant. Just an FYI. Honey bee drones are not a caste. Per "The Beekeepers Handbook, fifth edition", by Diana Sammataro and Alphonse Avitabile on page 26: "Caste in social insects is applied to individuals of the same sex that differ both in behavior and morphology ... Drones, the male bees, are not members of a caste, since all drones exhibit the same morphology and behavior." It's still a fine clue because caste is commonly (mis)used that way.

Thank you Robyn, again. You certainly do have a great mind and I always enjoy solving your puzzles.

Using a MacBook Air and opening the puzzle in Firefox, I have no issues. It looks the same as it has always looked.

Easiest Saturday in a while for me. Missed my PB by 1 second.

Great puzzle. As always, you are wonderful, Robyn.

Fun puzzle, but a little easy for a Thursday.

For 6 across I immediately filled in KLYSTRON. It worked with 6 down, but I quickly saw that it was not going to work with any other crosses.
