After doing all 8 Sunday puzzles on paper, I had no desire to print out any more...

Today's my last day (for now) working at Sterling Publishing. Last Wednesday I took home an advance copy of The Wrath of Klahn Crosswords, a compilation of Bob Klahn's Sunday Challenges for CrosSynergy. Even though I've only been solving on the subway and during rehearsals, I've already made it through 55 of the 72 puzzles, and plan to finish it up this week. Guess I'll be ready if Klahn is constructing for the ACPT...

Wed. update: Both of Tausig's puzzles took me the same time... is there a connection to Oceanic Flight 316??!?!

Fireball subscribers -- okay, that's everyone besides the spambots -- I've learned that Roger DePont is constructing his annual Oscar-nominations puzzle on Tuesday, and it'll be supersized becaue of the expanded field this year. (What happens if Up gets a nod?) So we get two Fireball crosswords this week!
