I enjoyed this puzzle very much! The puns were very clever, and I wasn’t familiar with all of the musical references so had to solve a few tricky clues for the aha moment. Pleasantly challenging for a Wednesday, IMHO.
@Joe I actually did check it, and the definition that came up online did not include the transitive verb. It is also a very uncommon usage - it ires me, rather than irks me? Forgive me, as I said, I am a newbie, and I now see how quickly my observations will be challenged and will be more careful in the future! Thank you for your kind welcome into this forum.
A delightful mix of the arts and sciences - loved it!
Ugh. I am a new crossword solver and this frustrated me to no end. And Sundays are my favorite. Got the main idea with multiple repetitive letters, but the cross fill was so difficult it took me awhile to figure out the overall theme. “Ire” is a noun, not a verb, so I got hung up on “ires” for awhile. Nevertheless, I persisted and eventually finished the puzzle with one small error, whew!
Oh this puzzle was so much fun, loved the clues!
I loved this puzzle. Not too difficult, with a very clever theme!
I loved this clever puzzle. Yes the clues were not very difficult, although slightly tricky, but I have learned that whenever a possible answer doesn’t seem to fit, just look around at the adjacent squares and the aha moment appears. Then look around some more and you get more aha moments. Maybe not a standard crossword puzzle - which some here have grumbled they prefer - but a very pleasant way to spend a Sunday morning!
@Allen Totally agree, and I am a former CFO not a lawyer. My favorite was always “Conditions to Closing”, meaning the following requirements must be met before the contract is final and valid. Not the same thing as the basic “terms” of the contract as you describe.
@HeathieJ you’re supposed to make a note of the green letters each day and at the end of the week they reveal some special meaning
@Rocky Agree. I am an avid golfer and on most golf courses, public or private, men never wear tee shirts, although a woman might wear a nice one. It has become more of an accepted custom than a “dress code”.
@Lewis Since I am finding Wednesdays quite a bit easier (as a relatively new solver), it must be that the puzzles are getting easier and not that I am getting better.
@Steve L Uh, disagree, Steve. I am a Wall Street veteran, and we never used the term “Go IPO”. It was either “go public” or “do an IPO”
