Theme: "Volumizing" - BODY is added to each theme entry.
23. Obstruct one's buddies during a hockey game? : BODY CHECK MATES. Checkmates.
32. Crimson Tide wrestler? : ALABAMA BODY SLAMMER.
Boomer never heard of Alabama Slammer. I read the Wiki ingredients. He
said "Oh, it sounds girly." His likes Manhattan on the rocks.
52. Snoop's job? : BUSYBODY WORK. Busy work.
69. Royal with a broadcasting award? : PRINCESS AND THE PEABODY. Princess and the Pea. PEABODY is not rooted in BODY, hence an ideal choice in letter addition/deletion/replacement gimmick.
88. Central garage item? : BODY SHOP LIFT. Shoplift.
104. Benchmark for a movie daredevil? : BODY DOUBLE STANDARD. Double standard.
119. Immunology-themed gala? : ANTIBODY SOCIAL. Anti-social.
When I read the title, I figured something would be added. BODY appeared rather earlier, so I had plenty of free letters.
March 21, 2013 is the last time we saw Alex Bajcz's byline. Since then he has had two puzzles published by the New York Times. But today is his very first Sunday grid. Congrats, Alex! Bajcz is pronounced like "Badges", by the way.
Alex
is bold with his grid design. Those paralleled 11's in the upper right
and lower left are hard to pull off cleanly, esp since they're
intersecting two long Across themers. I can probably do a paralleled 9's
or 10's with one themer Across. You rock, Alex!

corkscrew)".

and help me when he's free.

DNF or FIW. ASMARA, SAL, & MSU were all totally unknown, so the two WAGs for the intersections were total shots in the dark that both missed.
53d I knew was chocolate syrup, but BOSCO is a brand name I haven't heard in years.
{C, C, B-, B-.}
Roy ATTEMPTED TO prove it could be done without fear.
The STUNT was crazy, but he wouldn't hear.
The TIME TICKED AWAY,
Roy shouted, "Ya-hay!"
His last words were, "Bubba, hold my ICE COLD BEER!"
Here's the tale, the PRINCESS AND THE PEA
Without telling FIBS, this is how it READS TO me.
First a night of no rest,
A discarded mattress --
On the new bed her sleep number is seventy-three!
This act came to my town, which is where I SAW IT.
He's a SASSY new magician who I SAY IS A WIT.
He had a box on a trolley
And inside, his girl Dolly,
And said, "What do I do with this box? I SAW IT!"
There once was a MICROBE lived in an OASIS.
Being one-celled, he'd neither mother nor sis.
His pa was his brother,
His son was another,
They multiplied and divided sans sexual assist!
What? You never heard of the Alabama Slammer? (0.50)
Greetings!
Thanks, Alex and CC!
Fun theme!
Several WAGs and perps, such as POCHARD and PASTA, RWY and SAL.
Computer acting up. Writing this on iPAD. So must be brief.
Have a good Sunday!
Morning, All (and a Very Happy Birthday to Don G)!
This one ended up being a bit of a bear that nearly defeated me in the end (especially the NE corner), but I did managed to pull it off unassisted.
I got that BODY was being added to theme answers early on, but the theme still misled me a bit. BODY CHECK is a thing, so I assumed up front that this pattern would be followed for all theme answers. And it was for most of them, like BUSYBODY, BODY SHOP, ANTIBODY and BODY DOUBLE. Even PEABODY, in fact. But then I hit ALABAMA BODY SLAMMER and, since ALABAMA BODY isn't a thing (as far as I am ware, maybe it is?) I hesitated and tried to figure where I had gone wrong. Overthinking things, obviously.
Numerous missteps throughout, such as REGALES instead of READS TO, and some complete unknowns, including MEI, OBTESTS (which I swore had to be a mistake when the perps filled it in for me) and POCHARD.
And then we had the NE corner, where I almost met my Waterloo. The clue for PASTAS was impenetrable (what the heck is a Cavatappi?), I didn't know SAL and had no idea which school was the SPARTANS (although I guessed it might be USC, which I think is actually the Trojans). Oh, and then I had MARKETEERED instead of RACKETEERED (thinking of people who sell on the black market). I finally had to clear everything out and start over. Fixed most of the mistakes, but still couldn't get SAL or MSU until ASMARA suddenly popped up out of nowhere. Wasn't that the name of the evil little girl in the well in the "Ring" movies? I dunno, but for some reason it came to me and let me get the job done, although I honestly wasn't expecting it to right and was very surprised to get the *TADA*. MSU I can believe, but SAL Khan? How odd...
Good morning, sort of...but Happy Birthday, Don-G.
DNF. I knew something was wrong in the NL EAST area -- turns out it was NL EAST. I refused to accept WEST, because that would give me RWY, and what the heck is that? In Colorado? Oh, you tell me the "Cowboy State" is WYoming. I was thinking of the Denver Cowboys. Oh, you tell me that the Cowboys play in Dallas? D'oh! It was definitely not my day.
OBTESTS -- really? Learning moment.
POCHARD -- really? I've heard of a potsherd but not pochard. Learning moment.
Good to know that BOSCO is good for something, even if it's a fake something.
C.C., I would have given short shrift to that proselytizer and suggested an anatomical storage location for her good news.
Good Morning, C.C., and friends. Ouch! This was a toughie. It didn't start out well when I thought the Telling Tales was Lies, which let me to conclude that Filling a Vacancy was Lets (as in letting an apartment).
I did like the addition of the BODY to the theme answers.
Hand up for wanting Oven in lieu of KILN.

I liked this one which was not difficult except for the extreme NE. Owen KL said, "DNF or FIW. ASMARA, SAL, & MSU were all totally unknown, so the two WAGs for the intersections were total shots in the dark that both missed." Me, too, except I did hear of ASMARA, but couldn't dredge it up. BTW, I liked your first poem best, A.
I knew that Congress members, Senate and House, are IDed by their party affiliation (R or D) and the 2 letter state abbrev. That helped.
TAMLA was all new. I seriously doubted OBTESTS and obsessed on it for 10 minutes. Learning moment.
I knew Khan Academy, having seen a section about it on TV, but I didn't know SAL. Very interesting concept.
I enjoy a moderate amount of snow each winter, but I would not care to live in the lake effect snow belt.
Barry, I, too, was over thinking, trying to make BODY fit two ways.
Good Morning:
Even though the theme was evident early on, I had some trouble in a few areas because of all the unknowns: pochard, obtests, Tamla, Sal, Asmara, etc. I, too, have never heard of an Alabama Slammer but I did know cavatappi. All in all, it was an enjoyable solve with a lot of interesting fill, but it took much longer to complete than a typical Sunday.
Thank you, Alex, for the challenge and thank you, CC, for the detailed summary. Sorry your garage sale wasn't more successful.
Happy Birthday, Don G; hope it is a special day! 🎂 🎁 🎈 🎊 🎉
TTP from yesterday: Thanks for the info on Fretters, the business. Now, I have to figure out why I associated that name with a food item.
Have a great day.
Good write up CC.
This puzzle was annoying.
A very happy birthday to THE MENTOR Don Hard G, who unleashed an incredible force upon the crossword world. Thank you and many more happy creative years.
A very fine write up of what for me was a very inconsistent puzzle. I loved the gridspanning PRINCESSANDTHEPEABODY, did not care for the arbitrary abbreviations NETH LDRS and the RWY. The unknowns were for me all downs so accessible but TAMLA SAL MEI POCHARD and BRAGA rang no bells and OBTESTS seemed too obscure for a Sunday. Sal Khan I should know, Mei I should know...ah well thanks to perps it all filled.
Happy new week to all. Thanks Alex and C.C.
"Ultrasounds" or similar would've been a fairer clue for O.B. TESTS
THE EURO. Does "The" feels unnecessary to you?
Sorry, forgot to comment on this earlier. In a word, yes. In a bunch of words, this one nearly stumped me, since I couldn't think of any city that started with THE [except, perhaps, for THE HAGUE, but is that even a city?] or any currency that started with THE. When the perps finally got me to THE EURO I groaned out loud.
Also forgot to mention that I'm talking the family to see Cirque Du Soleil in downtown Boston this afternoon. My wife and I saw them perform years ago in Vegas on our Honeymoon, and we're anticipating a show that will blow Joshua's mind. Not cheap by any means, but he's never been to a circus of any type and we've been promising to take him to one for years. Life just always seems to get in the way...
billocohoes said..."Ultrasounds" or similar would've been a fairer clue for O.B. TESTS. I agree. Good idea.
Barry, I hope Joshua enjoys the circus. My grandson always did.
Happy birthday, Don G. I enjoy your puzzles.
The three letter ID's for Congress-people are very common in news articles with dozens of examples, such as:
"NBC promotes Corey Booker (D-NJ) as Hillary's running mate."
"U.S. Senator Fischer (R-NE) has proposed legislation to make the rule apply only when there is more than 10,000 gallons."
Novels are my anodyne, healthier than food or wine.I have read two full novels this week and am well into my third.
A very worthy test this morning, but A_MAR_ gave me a two-cell Natick where I chose a wrong consonant and a wrong vowel.

IM @ 9:06 - You might be thinking of fritters. Wiki: Fritter is a name applied to a wide variety of fried foods, usually consisting of a portion of batter or breading which has been filled with bits of meat, seafood, fruit, or other ingredients. Down South, corn fritters are popular, as are apple fritters.
Yellowrocks quoted me, so back atcha:
Novels are my anodyne,
Healthier than food or wine.
I have read in full this week
Two novels. Those I did complete
And even tho I may obsess
I obtest my books confess
My reading has not been deferred,
For I am well into my third!
ob·test (ŏb-tĕst′)
To supplicate; entreat.
[Latin obtestārī : ob-, to; see ob- + testārī, to call as a witness (from testis, witness; see trei- in Indo-European roots).]
obtest (ɒbˈtɛst)
1. (tr; may take a clause as object or an infinitive) to beg (someone) earnestly
2. (when: tr, takes a clause as object; when intr, may be foll by with or against) to object; protest
3. (tr) to call (a supernatural power) to witness
[C16: from Latin obtestārī to protest, from ob- to + testārī to bear or call as witness]
@Irish Miss--fretters / fritters?
"Fritter is a name applied to a wide variety of fried foods, usually consisting of a portion of batter or breading which has been filled with bits of meat, seafood, fruit, or other ingredients." Wikipedia
OOOH, Owen! I'm flattered. Cute.
DNF. That top right corner did it for me.
My usual PANEER go-with is spinach for saag paneer - spicy spinach and cheese. Paneer is easy to make yourself if you don't have an Indian market close by.
Fritter Friday at Stewart's
I found this puzzle to be pretty difficult, and approximately 75% satisfying. Like Lemonade, I am left unsatisfied by abbreviations such as NETH and LDRS. Yeah, I know, sometimes sacrifices must be made. At least I knew Soong MEI-Ling. Notice that the three sisters were all named something-Ling. My wife and her sisters are all named Bo (Precious, Pao in Mandarin)-something, and her brothers are all named Gwok (Nation, Guo in Mandarin)-something.
I love saag, Indian creamed spinach. Paneer, not so much. Naan, definitely yes. And yep, hot soy milk (doujiang) and youtiao.
Oh, and I don't get the Payless box EEE thing. Never mind; I looked it up and learned that Payless is a brand of shoes.
I will probably never use the word OBTEST except maybe to say I'll probably never use it. Same with POCHARD.
Happy birthday, Don, and late happy birthday wishes to you, Tony. Best wishes to you all.
I have to speak up and say I think Jerome's comment about PK last night qualifies as a personal attack, and I'll go so far as to say I think he owes her an apology.
Has anybody here had the IOL procedure for cataracts? I'd love to know what your experience of it was, and what your opinion about it is. Feel free to email me if you don't want to discuss it here. Thank you.
Jayce, we are adults here, no school marm or parent-child issues. My approach is in the forum of intellectually equal adults. Which ideas are merely uninformed opinion and which are the facts as can be ascetained with the best of our current knowledge, pending further data? I love college forensics. I love learning from the superior knowledge of others. I am for the free and open exchange of knowledge. I love debating ambiguous issues.This is not one upmanship, but a thirst for learning.
I agree Jayce. Jerome has posted similar attacks before. Some targeted individuals while others have shown his disdain for wealthy tourists that drive expensive cars and large trucks. I lost my respect for him years ago. Sadly, his witty comments seem to keep him in high esteem with many others on this blog.
Yellowrocks, thank you. Please notice how you conflated facts with (uninformed) opinion, as if a presentation of the facts should necessarily invalidate one's opinion and obligate him/her to change it. One can debate the facts, but opinions, whether "informed" or "uninformed," are matters of feeling or personal experience and therefore an entirely different thing. The fact that a tuba is technically or "formally" a wind instrument cannot change my experience of having always known it as and considered it to be a brass and not a wind. In fact, you supported your insistence that it is a wind instrument by referring to your own experience: "I learned in grammar school that a wind instrument is any instrument..." Well, that is your experience but it wasn't, for example, mine or that of others who were taught differently.
I still say Jerome was way out of line to call PK a gnat.
Just got back in town from my grandson's tennis tournament ( in Baton Rouge of all places this weekend) and this puzzle gave me fits until I completed it, way after my usual 25-30 minutes for a Sunday. I never drank one but I got the trick to this puzzle at the ALABAMA BODY SLAMMER but it took about 30 minutes to get to that point. With unknowns like Cavatappi, Paneer, Khloe, Soong____-ling, TAMLA, ASHER, OMSK, LISA Leslie, POCHARD, BRAGA, BOSCO (really?), OBTESTS (huh! sounds like a female's doctor's tests) and not knowing the correct spelling of Feng SHUI or RECONNOITER, I CHOSE to grind it out. But this GEEZER was never AT EASE.
SAL Khan was easy as he is a local kid. It's time for an ICE COLD BEER with the temp at 97 degrees.
C.C. I have had ONE yard sale-never again- and now I just take photos, mail them to everybody on my contacts list offering the item as FREE. If it remains after two days I put it on Craig's List as FREE stating that it is on the street. I've managed to get rid of a fountain that a raccoon knocked over and the Hot Springs hot tub. I had over 50 inquiries in one hour.
Good evening, folks. Thank you, Alex Bajcz, for a fine puzzle. Thank you, C.C., for a fine review.
Got this done late this morning. Worked on it a few hours. As I predicted yesterday, I thought that today might be pretty tough (because yesterday was so easy). Well, I was right.
Got 1A and 1D right off the bat. I was enlighten. That changed quickly.
I bounced around getting a word here and there. The theme appeared and it did help me with some of those entries with BODY.
Never heard the word OBTESTS before. Got it with perps. After I was done I looked it up in my hard cover old Webster and it was there (beseech). It was not in my new state of the art cell phone dictionary, however.
Very familiar with Paneer and NAAN. Ate it daily for three years in Iran. We used to call it Panie Noonie. Goat cheese on flat bread. Good stuff.
96A was tough for a while. I was looking at the mountain range, not the ball team. Finally hit me. You have to keep an open mind.
BPOE was easy. I am a 44 year member of Erie Lodge #67. Ladies can be Elks as well now. As of about 20 years ago.
POCHARD was unknown. Perps.
91D RWY was clever.
Went to a pool party and barbecue today with our South Carolina Mission Trip gang. Fun day.
See you tomorrow.

Jayce, I tried to voice my support for you only to be deleted.
Can't we all just get along?
Jayce, Thanks, I needed that. Bad week.
Yes, Jeromes comment seemed out of character to me as well.
That's my point CED, it's not out of character. He's done this several times before. I think he went after Gareth just a few weeks ago and I think his target was big easy just before GB. I remember Tinbeni drawing some wrath once also. The man has his moments. Maybe
The NE seemed unfair with crossings of ASMARA/SAL/MSU/ASHER. I have even seen Salman Khan speak and forgot that SAL would be his first name in a puzzle. Does anyone call him that? And no idea what is MSU.
But the worst for me: Two dates just seemed wrong.
Why is LAYLA dated 1992 when it came out in the 1970s? I got it, but don't get it.
And what is with THE EURO being dated 2002 when it came out years earlier? Again, I got it right, but I don't get it.
As a math person when I saw "Volumizing" I was thinking square -> cube kind of thing. Not thinking about hair volume!
Eric Clapton, 1993 award recipient for the song "Layla", two notes, it was the unplugged version and the date is a year off.
MSU - Michigan State University Spartans.
In 1999 the Euro was born virtually and in 2002 notes and coins began to circulate
Thanks as always Argyle!
It just seemed odd that more information in the form of a year made it more difficult for me! Without the years in those cases it would have been easy. To me, Layla is a 70s song, not a 90s song!
