I believe this was the first Thursday puzzle I've solved with no hookups! Yay me!
"Bork" with no explanation as to it's derivation?
@Grant Thus the choice of a beaver as mascot. They are some of the best engineers in nature after all.
@Matt R. Agreed. I didn't think the clue and answer quite fit. Someone will probably correct me but ice seemed to be good for a drink but not for a drive. Icy?
@Steve Daniel The clue said (var.)
AWOL not the same as MIA, HBO has been called MAX for quite a while now. I expect you already know these things though.

@Andrzej Badum-dum cymbal crash!
@Deb Amlen. Read the recent recommendations in Wirecutter regarding ant control!
@Ken Chronographs are wonderful things, often beautiful pieces of art.
More like a Tuesday puzzle! Fun though.
@Niki B If you go to an Asian restaurant, particularly Thai, and they have mock duck, mock chicken etc. on the menu, that is Seiten. It is very good but of course 100% gluten.
