Hello Puzzlers -
Thought I'd chime in today because of the appearance of Alice's Restaurant, the story of which is centered here in W. Massachusetts. While Arlo Guthrie was arrested for littering in Stockbridge, the restaurant and ex-church of the story were in Great Barrington. The latter is a pleasant town with interesting little shops, including a fiber arts store owned by the actress Karen Allen (she was in the Indiana Jones movies). There's a quaint little airport, too. As for Stockbridge, it's better known as the home base of Norman Rockwell; by coincidence I'm planning to visit the superb Rockwell museum later today.
Morning C.C., your porridge looks delicious!
FIR! Last to fall was DhS+WAv+SO hAvE I. Thought 23a was a play on CHArT ROOM, which slowed me down slightly on grasping the gimmick, but there were plenty of other examples to guide me straight.
There once was a whaler captain named AHAB
Wandered the VAST ocean, a seagoing NOMAD.
In ANGST, took to drink!
Saw an elephant, pink,
And other strange beasts while in rehab!
{B-.}
Hi Y'all! I had some ANGST with this puzzle, Matt, because I lost it twice. In reconstructing what I'd already solved, I struggled to remember some entries I'd struggled with the first time. But I filled it all with only one red-letter run. Thanks for the mental exercises.
The number of theme entries was impressive. I sorta got the theme, but hadn't put my mind to it to really appreciate the humor. Had the most trouble with RESENT BUTTON.
C.C.: your porridge does look good and hearty for cold weather. Lots of protein in some of those legumes. You're right, those dirty jeans for that much money does drive me nuts. It cost about that much in the lifespan of the jeans for Spray & Wash to try to get the oil & grime out of jeans that looked like that every week of my 33 year marriage.
Good morning!
The theme eluded me (no surprise there), until SNAKE PINT showed up. Then all those other senseless answers made sense. Thanx, Matt and C.C.
That "stylish flip-phone" looks just like the one I carry, right down to the little TV screen on the outside. I'm told it can do texts, but I've never figured out how.
The best root beer of my ute was A&W.
NAM -- I thinking I'm having flashbacks from that series, and I was never in-country! Closest I got was "Yankee Station" in the Gulf of Tonkin.
Interesting PYMK article, C.C. And that is why I refuse to join FacePlant. I suspect that long-lost relative had been included in somebody's public Ancestry tree.
I keep a pair of faded, stained, probably torn jeans in my closet for painting/wood working/eave cleaning projects. Not purposely stained -- it just works out that way.
Music on CD is in .WAV format. The songs ripped to my music server are converted to .FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) -- a space-saving technology, think of a .ZIP file for audio. MP3 files would be even smaller, but they're "lossy," so I'm sticking with .FLAC.
There's no cold cereal in our pantry, C.C. My favorite breakfast lately is a potato-and-egg burrito from Maggy's Ranchito up the road. Not healthy, but tasty.
Good Morning, C.C. and friends. Fun and easy Sunday puzzle. I got the theme early on with the CHANT ROOM.
My favorite clues were: Farewell That's Bid = ADIEU and Rarely Ordered Food = STEAK.
There are lots of new branches of libraries where I live. They are lively social centers with reading rooms, social rooms, numerous computer centers and video rooms. There is a branch on my route to and from work. I often order a book I want to read and have it delivered to that branch so I can pick it up at my convenience. I don't think PSST is used anymore. The libraries aren't silent, although the atmosphere is generally quiet.
C.C.: your porridge looks tasty. Please post the proportions of the ingredients.
QOD: The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald (Sept. 24, 1896 ~ Dec. 21, 1940)
Me, too, Hahtoolah. "Fun and easy Sunday puzzle. I got the theme early on with the CHANT ROOM." The theme helped with the rest of the solve.
OKL, another "so have I" to you. That section was my last fill, also.
Our town does not have a library and is not in the county consortium. Since we do not contribute to the libraries' upkeep, we now will be charged to $250 a year to buy a membership. When the price became that steep I dropped out. Thank goodness for ebooks. Amazon Prime and other sites let me read for free. I agree that libraries are generally quiet, but no longer silent. My "former" library has a silent study room.
I always read the paper and do the puzzle with my breakfast of toast and eggs or grilled cheese. I rarely eat cereal hot or cold. I don't like the texture. Sometimes I eat raisin bran dry. IMO milk makes cereal mushy. I have never liked hot cereal: oatmeal, porridge, grits, cream of wheat, etc. My mom used to fry chilled leftover cornmeal mush. I liked that because it had a different texture.
Off to the farm to buy fresh apple cider, corn and tomatoes. I hate to see the summer vegetable season end.
Musings
-The Edsel was “Ugly, overpriced, overhyped, poorly made and poorly timed”
-This DAM with a four-lane highway on top turned a cornfield into a lake near Wahoo, NE four years ago
-Mary TODD Lincoln had much misery in her life
-I’ve never seen this NOMAD in person
-Being LATE is NOT fashionable in this house
-USO line - I want you GI’S to remember what you’re fighting for
-The most famous matched weapons in American history
-ACT NOW and we’ll double the offer of this worthless stuff
-The old 35mm films we showed in school back in the sixties were full of bad SPLICES
-Cold cereal is a fav of mine, esp. Kellogg’s Frosted Mini Wheats
Thanks Matt and C.C.
The puzzle had excellent clues and some stumpers like "so have I" crossing with "wav." Altogether, a fun and satisfying start to the week.
I read the Facebook link. Scary stuff.
Greetings to all!
Like Hahtoolah and YR, I caught onto the theme early with CHANT ROOM. Fun puzzle, Matt. My favorite clue/answer was "Rarely ordered food?" for STEAK. The Mensa site gave the clue for 5D as "10donation". 10% donation is much more clear. Thanks for the expo C.C..
No cereal for breakfast here. I am not a fan of typical breakfast foods, preferring reheated dinner leftovers or a bowl of soup. Today's fare was Progresso's Savory Beef Barley Vegetable soup. I find it a bit salty, so I add a little water, and also a squirt of sriracha sauce to spice it up a bit.
Best wishes for your interview tomorrow, Splynter.
Enjoy the day!
Husker, did you really show 35mm films? All of our school projectors were 16mm. But yes, they were full of splices. We even had a splicing block attached to the projector table for in-class repairs. (When I got thrown out of study hall my freshman year, the principal assigned me to show movies downstairs in the grade school. If there were no movies to show, I was to assist the Chemistry teacher setting up the next day's experiments.)
After the PRINCE INDEX filled the theme was apparent. I had a small slowing in the midsection, not knowing TARDE and filling BUY NOW for ACT NOW. But that was the only area that wasn't rapidly filled. ENNA, DADS, DREA, & NEA were unknowns filled by perps.
I filled SATIN AND LANCE and TIBETAN YANK without reading the clues. Never having used Twitter, I was stumped for a minute.
SEXT- flip phone- say what you want about them but you can't butt-dial anybody with one.
NAM- we've been watching the PBS showing and I think they are up to 1968. What this revisionist historical show has not emphasized is how many of his own people Ho Chi Minh was willing to get killed just so he can remain in charge. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the series plays out, especially if it shows what the North did after the Paris Peace Accords.
Good Morning:
Sometimes, Sunday puzzles can be a slog due to their size but if they have a clever/interesting theme and some sparking fill, they can be challenging and enjoyable; today's offering falls squarely into that realm. I caught the theme early on so that helped, but didn't prevent numerous w/os: ran away/ran free, smell/scent, ale/IPA, staid/stoic, sad/eat, ham/Sam, mover/nomad, etc. The wildest one, though, was completely missing the Spanish ayes trickery and thinking I was so smart to remember the Spanish word for eyes. I plopped in oyos instead of si si which was not only the wrong answer, it was the wrong spelling as eyes is ojos, not oyos. So much for my memory! OTOH, two crosswordese answers that I do always remember correctly are dekes and Utne. Wasn't fond of upraise or the CEO/COS/COO string, either.
Thanks, Matt for a fun and smooth solve and thanks, CC, for your analysis and commentary. I am not a breakfast eater but when we were young, oatmeal (the original, not the instant) was a must, especially on cold winter mornings. I never really liked it but had no other choice. I prefer having brunch around 12:00-1:00 and my ideal meal would be Eggs Benedict accompanied by a tall Bloody Mary! (Maybe even two!)
Speaking of food, my brother came back from Maine yesterday and brought me a lobster that he cooked and picked out the meat, which I later turned into lobster salad to go with my corn on the cob and fresh, sliced tomatoes for a yummy, tummy pleasing dinner. While he was here, I took advantage of his culinary smarts and had him cut up a whole chicken into pieces for frying. (I tried doing that once and, to put it mildly, the results were not pretty.) He was a fireman and learned very quickly that if you want good food, you better learn how to cook. He is a very good cook and does all of the cooking at home.
We're supposed to hit 90, or close to it, today and tomorrow and then lower, more seasonal temps by Thursday. Personally, I prefer cooler rather than hotter days, especially now that it's fall.
I'm taping the Ken Burns Vietnam series and have only watched the first episode, so far. I learned a lot, especially about the early days of Ho Chi Minh (sp?) and the political and cultural clashes that set the stage for our involvement. Ken Burns and Ms. Novick were on Charlie Rose the other day and I learned a lot from them, also. It's going to be difficult to watch, I know, but I feel compelled to learn what I didn't know back when it was happening.
Have a great day.
Good morn! Fun puzzle for me today with good clueing except for 37A: Lift (UPRAISE) I'm sure it's perfectly fine...just was odd to my ears. Otherwise, very enjoyable.
I know of a HAG named Ms ADDAMS
Who made VAST sums as a madam
Her clients, dressed to A TEE
Carried on and RAN FREE
Which caused her to TSK right back at 'em
Owen, I'm trying. LOL
UPRAISE, RAISE UP, UPLIFT – all redundant, aren't they?
And, just what are the COs that CEOs lead?
And, yes, but what the heck is a TIBETAN YANK (or a "New Englander from Lhasa," for that matter)?
WEES. This was fun! And like you all, I also caught the them at CHANTROOM and PRINCEINDEX. The one I though most awkward is SATIN AND LANCE. It was my last fill because I couldn't reconcile it but it finally made sense. UPRAISE is also odd and it took a long time to fill because I had FRONTLINE then realized FRONTPAGE would lead to ANGST.
SPECIALK with almond and berries is my preferred cereal as well as occasionally Cheerios. The original Special K tastes like Styrofoam. Usually I have a smoothie but about twice a week I eat cereal. Like YR as children we had oatmeal or cream of wheat. In those days there were not many choices of cereal.
MOLARS, STEAK and ADIEU I thought were cleverly clued.
SI SI, two of my favorite writers appeared, WILDE and O HENRY.
Thank you, Matt McKinley for a smooth solve. C.C., for your guidance and I agree, your porridge looks yummy.
Have a sensational day, everyone!
Was I the only one with a blind spot on 114A, which I read as "S(N)AKE PINT" instead of "SNAKE PI(N)T"? It sort of makes sense that way too, except that a "sake pint" isn't really a thing.
That was fun. Thanks Matt, Rich and CC.
UPRAISE may be a real word but it's one that I would try to avoid in the real world outside crossword puzzling. If I were a constructor and couldn't find my way out of a pickle without using UPRAISE, then OK.
Quick breakfast would be Cheerios, a little maple/pecan granola mixed in with some berries on top. Hot cereal would be Cream of Wheat with a little brown sugar. My favorite breakfast food includes eggs, bacon or sausage, etc.
Say, maybe some of you can help me with your knowledge and insight. I use a Mr. Coffee electric coffee maker to make coffee every morning. I rinse out the 12-cup carafe but apparently that's not sufficient to keep the coffee stains away. The carafe has developed a brownish stain inside that now resists soap and water. Any tips on a relatively easy way to remove the stain? If not, I think I'll just buy a new one. They aren't very expensive.
Clever puzzle, Matt, and lots of fun--many thanks. I loved being able to get many of the clues right away--LOUISE popped into my mind immediately along with the tune. I liked the literary (AHAB) and cultural (BURNETT) references, and got the theme with SEWER RA(N)T. My only really dumb moment came when STEAK appeared, and I thought, "Come on, people order STEAK all the time!" Didn't get the RAREly until C.C.'s picture.
Loved your Porridge, C.C. You're amazing, running the blog, constructing terrific puzzles, and then cooking porridge and posting the pictures on Sunday!
I happened to be eating Raisin Bran topped with blueberries, while reading all the posts about breakfast food.
Irish Miss, what a cool brother you have! And fun poems, Owen and Coach J.
Have a great Sunday, everybody!
Bill G. I recall Heloise said something about cream of tartar... A quick Google gave me this Good Housekeeping article..
Bill Graham:
Fill the carafe with vinegar and run it through twice. Then run plain water once. My manual also instructs to use a filter.
WLS -- What Lucina said. I use white vinegar about every 3 months to "clean the pipes" in the coffee maker. It brews better/faster afterwards. The mild acetic acid in the vinegar also helps dissolve the alkaline buildup in the carafe.
I use cream of tartar to remove the black potato starch stains from the aluminum saucepan I use for boiling potatoes. After boiling it gets back its silvery sheen. It's a really old saucepan -- WWII vintage, I believe. I "inherited" it when mom and pop downsized in the '70s -- we kids called it the "great divide."
Bill G. - Try putting some ice in the carafe - crushed is better than cubed. Swish it around and it might come clean. It is really effective when the pot is "boiled" dry.
Like IM, I also proudly wrote in "ojos" having misread the clue. I also erased pro for ACE (again).
Any Sunday when I get a FIR with no assistance is a good Sunday for me. Thanks Matt and CC for a fun Sunday.
BW, I passed my CompTIA Project+ certification exam yesterday. Not as tough as I had feared. A nice adjunct to my Project Management Professional credential. I'll be teaching a Project+ exam preparation class next year.
Bill, if you you use Lucina's tip periodically you will not get built up stains. Because the pot is so stained this time you will probably need to dump the vinegar after it runs through and scrub the pot with a non scratch scrubbing type sponge while it is still warm. If the pot needs more work you can scrub it again with baking soda sprinkled on the sponge. Finish up by running a pot of clear water through the maker. I use a pot brush on the basket after the vinegar wash.
Many coffee makers give directions not to put the pot in dishwater. That is just wrong because you get stains from the remnants of the coffee and they must be removed. The maker's idea is that your dishwater and dish cloth will be a little greasy. After each use I just add warm water and a drop of dish washing liquid to the pot and wash it with a very clean sponge. Then I rinse thoroughly. Never put cold water in a hot glass pot.
UPRAISE, RAISE UP, UPLIFT are redundant for emphasis.
CEOs lead COs, an abbreviation for companies.
I think the Tibetan Yank construction is similar to Irish American. He is of Tibetan lineage, but living in the Northeast U.S.thus a Yank(ee).
Bill, call it patina, a la Antiques Roadshow.
Argyle, yucky.
Argyle, good one :)
This one went quickly. My brain wasn't looking for a tough one. I wasn't exactly sure about the gimmick; I was filling quickly.
An example of my dotage: I put IFS instead of DHS. OWNED is often used in sports; I should have got it without the W. Twain's YANKEE was from Connecticut.
Speaking of...
Dudley what's that town on the west side of the Connecticut River? Keene NH is on the East side. Hippie place.
AMBIENT was a cool fill.
CC, I caught your DROLLery on 73,78 down.
Matt, I hope to see you more often on Sunday (said the pastor to O'Malley)
Tony thanks for the Car Talk posts last night.
WC
Thanks, Misty. I've always dabbled in poems, haikus, etc but Owen has inspired me to explore my limerick side.
WC,
If you are thinking of Woodstock, VT, it's no hippie place. The Woodstock Music Festival was scheduled for Wallkill, NY, but held in Bethel, NY.
Coach J - nice.
Argyle - LOL. If Bill cleans the pot I can hear the appraiser saying "that you removed the patina reduces the value by $1000...." :-)
And -------- I tried to wait until Thanksgiving.... ARLO in '05. And there you have it fellow hippies.
The Nerd Fest (Splunk '17) starts tomorrow so I'm catching a flight to DC in the morning... Food! recommendations welcome - I'll be on NJ Street.
Cheers, -T
I looked it up: Brattleboro. I drove through about 15-20 years ago. What was"Hippie" 50 years ago is "Green" today.
But if you're in the market for beads or emboidered belts take a ride there.
WC
PS. "Nam". I spent a year in country with 1st MAW. Helicopter pilots I could have told Ken Burns a pretty good story about my friend Bill who crashed and burned.
WC
Some say I c&w'ed in a different way
Nice puzzle ... but ... Special K is not a brand of cereal, it's a cereal made by the brand Kellogg.
I found this quite challenging and it took awhile for me to get the theme. Felt like an accomplishment to FIR.
Not sure how MSEC is a PC time measure. Maybe NSECs are.
To answer your question, CC, I do eat cold cereal almost every day. DW sometimes likes to make pancakes, but otherwise it is whole grain cereal.
I alternate between Cheerios (whole grain oats) and Wheat Chex (whole grain wheat). Not sure why people think hot oat cereal is better for you than Cheerios. I love Cheerios!
And I am with Yellowrocks: I hate milk, so I eat my cereal cold and dry and it is delicious that way.
Did not realize RDA is an "old" thing. I remember when it was MDA.
Thanks, Dudley, for the scoop on ALICE'S Restaurant. We used to take summer vacations in the Berkshires when I grew up back East. It was a cheap summer getaway with lots to do. We made a point of visiting the places from ALICE'S Restaurant one summer after we saw the movie.
