A few months ago Deb wrote a remembrance of her dad and talked about how he invited her to solve with him when she was a kid. I am a mother of three school age kids and have always had a pang of guilt about time spent solving puzzles - a hobby I love. Deb’s story helped change my mindset so instead stealing moments when my kids are occupied, I puzzle in front of them and have been able to bring my oldest in to solve with me sometimes. It’s so fun to delight in wordplay and aha moments together. Plus I get to feel more joy and less guilt in my own solving. Just want to say thanks to Deb, and to others who have reflected fondly on puzzling with their kids or with their parents. Your stories changed me for the better.
@Danielle Interesting. I learned something new!
STIES are where pigs live. STyES are something different. Wonder if I was the only one who spent lots of time figuring that out.
@kilaueabart HR rep = Human Resources representative. Sometimes it’s all about the parsing :-)
@Lorne Eckersley man, your comment seems like it really hit a nerve for a lot of people. I guess many of us are feeling extra touchy. Hoping you and others can continue to find joy and escape in the puzzle and in this column. Here’s to better times ahead.
Anyone else think of Wrangler and Cherokee JEans? Fun misdirection for me.
@Mo I don’t follow sports at all and still enjoyed both puzzles with no lookups. I hope others did too
@Steve L totally agree. That was a great clue!
@Darcey O’D I see your comment from 23 hrs ago in the readers picks section, with several dozen recs. Maybe it wasn’t deleted after all?
