The alien EMBASSY came from DENEB!
To get here from there, at trans-light they SPED!
They would borrow our MOON --
But return it by Noon!
It was YULE there, and Santa needed light for his SLED!
The fitness marketer with ELAN, SWAM daily laps.
Practiced YOGA on his line of monogrammed mats.
Said he'd live past a hundred
On his BAR-NONE BEAN custard!
But the beans made him fart so, he breathed his last gasps!
{A, A.}
Greetings!
Thanks to Jeff and Santa!
Swell puzzle! Liked the theme!
No problems. Agree about BIG BOY BED.
Hope to see you all tomorrow!
Good (sorta) Morning!
No! Tell me I didn't DNF on a Monday. But, yes, I did. I put that kid in a BIG DAY BED. The Biblical fathered = BEGAT (that worked), and the football carriers = RDS (sounded just as good as RBS to this non-football guy). If I'd noticed the theme I wouldn't have fallen into the DAY BED. Bzzzzzzt!
Eydie Gormé is probably best known for that weird Y in her first name and for her hit Blame It On The Bossa Nova.
FIW here too.
Argyle, you were especially linky today.
Quick Monday with a little crunch like DENEB and ACERB. I didn't have the same issues with the BIG BOY BED - often the lingo used when convincing a wary toddler that this will be a good step just like big boy pants when transitioning out of diapers!
Have a good week - the area is getting heavy into the Halloween theme this time of year. Past ready to be done with it.
Thanks ARgyle and Jeff!
Big Bad Bill (Is Sweet William Now). Great song recorded by many artists.
Got it, but wasn't sure if it was ENT or EfT. Good EWAG. Didn't know DENEB, BYEx3, Lagasse or ERICA. I thought I didn't know the Trammps' song until I clicked on the Santa link.
I'll add to Santa's "missing" list: Belly Busting Buffet; Booze Boat Bimbos (which would be an excellent name for a rock band). Your fun ideas?
Most amateur golfers refer to "inside the leather" as being a gimme, meaning shorter than the distance between the bottom of the putter and the grip. It's technically illegal in individual play, but without gimmes there would be a lot of 6-hour rounds.
In my ute, girls would KILL to keep others (especially little brothers and parents) from reading their diary. Now there are no details too sordid to hold back from the BLOG, especially if there's a chance it will go viral.
Thanks Jeff for a fun, if slightly crunchy, Monday puzzle. And thanks to Santa for another fine write-up.
A not-too-long article on a crossword setter in San Quentin. The last few paragraphs are on prison policy, but the first 2/3rd or so are on the crossword aspect, and include a couple printable samples.
Easy Monday with no unfamiliar fill. Santa, thanks for the Frank and Steve and Eydie tunes.
CSO to us Cornerites. When it is difficult to get a toehold in a crossword, we look for gimmes.
Today one of those unneeded gimmes would be BIG BOY BED. I agree with inanehiker. We used the term all the time. Our toddlers were proud of their big boy bed. David was age two when his crib was needed for a new little brother and David was climbing over the top rail of his crib to shimmy down to the floor.
I don't miss the acerb comments of some of the anons. Other anons are delightful.
I don't know too many stars, but I do know DENEB.
I check out NJ BBB quite often.
Hi Y'all! Quick & easy, thanks, Jeff. Thanks, Argyle, you were really digging in the archives today.
Got the theme with the first one and it helped with the others. Didn't know BEBE or DENEB/REA -- natick. WAGd it okay.
I don't see a problem with BIG BOY BED. We had a lot of BIG BOY stuff. When my college age nephew introduced his girl friend to me, he surprised me by telling her, "Aunt PK gave me my first BIG BOY Bike", a hand-me-down from my son who moved up to a BIGger BOY Bike. Found it amusing that that was my one claim to fame with him.
Musings
-A BBB of my ute!
-EARNED – It seemed the harder I worked the luckier I got
-After beating America in most every space race milestone, the USSR drew back on financing his plan to go to the Moon
-ARNE – No clue/no problem
-Competitive TV cooking shows seem so wrong to me. Hey, my remote has a channel changer!
-Relief pitchers who give up MANY WALKS may soon be stocking shelfs at Wal~Mart.
-Do you remember this movie with all these DESKS? They found the people who spilled the BEANS.
-Changing a light bulb seems to be worthy of mention on our classmate’s BLOG
-BIG BOY BED is a very common phrase in our family
-Granddaughter is celebrating her 21st birthday in Grenoble, France today during her semester overseas. Yearly I remind her that I will always be 50 years older than she is!
-Let’s see, it is 10 am here, it will be 5 pm there. Time for a Facetime call from Papa!
I agree with others that this was a crunchy Monday. Thanks for the fun Jeff and Argyle.
Like d-otto, I had Begat before BEGOT (King James Version vs. New KJV) which gave me Day Bed, until I saw the theme and changed to BIG BOY BED (a term that is familiar to me).
I also could not remember an old CW friend, EDO, or PAGO. Since I was thinking 34D "barely beats" was referring to hearts not contests, EDGES took a long time to appear. In fact, I wanted Ebbs until it was needed elsewhere.
I also fought against ESTAB, but I see that it is an acceptable short-form (although maybe not as common) along with EST and ESTD.
DENEB was also slow to appear.
Nothing political, but I was reminded, when I heard his speech at the Hurricane Relief Concert the other day, of how much I admire the oratory ability of OBAMA.
Happy Birthday to your granddaughter, Husker Gary. What an opportunity for her to study in France. And how wonderful that modern technology allows you to connect across the miles.
Wishing you all a great day.
Good puzzle by Jeff Stillman and good expo by Argyle. Deneb new to me. Easy reveal. Ovine and hoary are also new but got thru perps. How is urn a vessel of verse?
A very good dog-lover movie Megan Leavey.
Cheers
I can't believe I made the exact same mistakes as Desper-otto,
letter for letter!
Oh wait, I also had shoein...
(Mambeed? anyone?)
I liked this puzzle. When I got BRICK BY BRICK I thought the theme was going to be the pattern WORD A, WORD B, WORD A. Then I got BIG B_Y _ED and began to see the three-B gimmick. (Hand up for BEGAT at first, making it BIG BAY _ED.) Fun Monday stuff. I liked seeing BAR NONE, HOVELS, SHOOINS, and DOODY. If anything seemed a bit forced to me, it was BYE BYE BYE, but heck, it's a song title/lyrics so it could be anything.
MarkS, it's a reference to Keats' Ode on a Grecian Urn.
Mark S, The poet John Keats wrote the poem "Ode on a Grecian Urn."
desper-otto, GMTA!
"Puzzling Thoughts":
I, too had BEGAT > BEGOT, and DENEB was solved by perps. I suspected that ENT/DENEB might be a Natick, but I passed with flying colors!
GIMME was a GIMME
Surely, you can't be serious. I am serious, and don't call me SHIRLEY!
I wasn't thrilled by the constructor crossing SHOO INS with INS, but that's my only nit
My silly limerick:
While I'm aware this may seem just cliché,
I am going to say it, straight away:
If then, Robert, she'd marry,
After drinking fine sherry,
She'd be: Eydie Gormé-Goulet, gourmet.
My Moe-ku, which I hope you'll get:
Tennis Pro lost match
In round two, to Timberlake.
He said, "BYE BYE, BYE."
Thanks Jayce and desper-Otto. Jace — - GMTA?
I gotta share this with you all. Of special interest to those of you who rent cars at the airport. Our son, who was on a business trip to Dallas and Austin, discovered a car rental business called Silvercar. It's actually owned by Audi and all the cars are silver-colored Audi 4 sedans. He loved it, especially since he is a car aficionado and especially likes German cars. Lower prices than the usual Hertz or Avis, no hassle, easy. His enthusiasm rubbed off on me and I am therefore telling you about it.
CanadianEh - What do you mean when you use crunchy to describe a puzzle?
GTMA great minds think alike
I too found this a bit of a Monday toughie, but that was mainly because I got Eydie wrong by remembering her as TORME rather than GORME, and that kept the northwest corner messed up for quite a while. But I loved the BBB theme, so, many thanks, Jeff. I also liked all the memories this puzzle evoked--SHIRLEY Temple, HOWDY DOODY, LILITH from "Cheers." Never heard of DENEB, but the perps helped with that one. Anyway, fun puzzle and great pictures, Argyle--many thanks!
Got an e-mail this morning from a young student in the mid-East, asking me to please send her a 1976 article I published on Henrik Ibsen. I was about to check my files when I remembered that I didn't get a computer until 1987 (could that be right?) and so had no file at all. And I had moved across three different states (Oklahoma, Michigan, California) since then and that kind of paperwork just didn't make it on those journeys. Well, we're talking about fifty years, a half a century, aren't we?
Have a great day, everybody!
Excellent write-up Argyle.
Jeff: Thank you for a FUN Monday puzzle. Enjoyed the B-B-B theme.
No booze clues or answers ... So there was "No Fave" today.
Cheers!
Hello everyone.
Slightly crunchy, but solved without look-ups. The BBB theme helped make it easier.
DENEB - Part of the Summer triangle as others have said. Vega and Altair are at the other vertices.
HOVEL - Cognate German is Hövel; L. German Huvel. (Shed). There is a Dutch word heuvel meaning small hill. There is a small village called Heuvelton near the St. Lawrence in Northern NY.
Mark S @12:04- Crunchy is just my Corner word for a puzzle that is just a little chewy and requires some extra thought and even erasures to figure out, as opposed to a puzzle that goes down (fills in) easily like Pablum (good Canadian invention). Monday's usually fill quickly for me but I had to do a little more work today. I thought that my brain might have been tired after the weekend but I see that others had some of the same slowdowns.
Glad you are enjoying the crosswords. File URN away for future use; it appears fairly often. There are favourites that appear and reappear with slightly different clues. EDO today was an example but I had not seen it for awhile and had to RAID the memory banks.
My previous post to Mark S reminded me that, when I first started doing the LAT CW, I created a list in the back of my dictionary of clues/answers that kept reappearing. This was before Mr. Google and well before I discovered this blog (probably before the blog existed). I even had to wait for the answer grid in the next day's newspaper. I chuckle even to think of that! Oh the HUMOR (add Canadian U!).
Anyway, I pulled out the old dictionary and sure enough, in the back, I found my list. ETUI, NENE! OSIER! OGEE! ORT! TETRA! ELKS! RECTO! STET! OPAH! STERE and many more that are now common to me. Even SOI DISANT from last week was there. Perhaps I should review the list. LOL.
Does this prompt memories for any of you?
CanadianEh, thanks for your reply. Do you still keep a list? I just added deneb to my list. Osier was already on it.j
Sorry for being dense, Argyle: "Why Study in Tripoli". Why?
Hand up for BEGAT -> BEGOT
Fun little theme and mostly easy Monday ride. I did know DENEB from being a member of the local astronomy club, but I would guess that could be a problem for others.
Unknowns: BEBE, BYE BYE BYE, ARNE, ERICA. Only know EMERIL from these puzzles.
I found this easy. I've noticed that people usually have difficulties with cultural references--it depends on your life experiences (era, geography [Right, CanadianEh?], religion, etc.) My unknowns tend to be sports, disco music ...; usually can solve from perps. My knowledge of astronomy is mostly from science fiction (hard SF, not scifi)--I never could see the constellations when I was a Scout, but I know star names, etc.
Misty, would that be"Myth and Neurosis in Ibsen's Mature Plays"?
If so someone with a PC can link it for you.
WC
Cool, Argyle - way cool!
Your four line epitaph illustrating HERE actually constitutes the first two lines of a classic Haiku!
All it needs is five more syllables to complete the form. Maybe something like,
It's not my nature
or something like that - maybe funnier?
Mr. Stillman's pzl brought me joy on this hot Monday morning in SoCal. My only complaint is that he went out of his way to create a grid that prevented my favored NW to SE diagonal solve. But Ta- DA! anyway!
Although this was a Monday softie, I had to pause and think hard in the SE corner. Like Misty and Jinx and PK I never heard of DENEB. And not being a Tolkien fan (preferring T.H. White for fantasy), I am never sure what he called his bizarre characters. I took a chance that he burdened his "tree creatures" with an upper respiratory/auditory specialty - and I lucked out.
Aw shucks, t'warn't nuthin' ...
Actually, this went too fast. I scribbled in ABRASE which resulted in SENEV. I vaguely knew DENEV. Problem is I have Sunday's riddler on my mind. I refuse to capitulate. I'm tempted to look up Midori.
We've had her before. Love that list; where's that little doggerel I penned about all the xword staples. Isao Aoki, Mel Ott etc.
Tin, how about ByoBB. Bring your own Booze and Beer.
Btw. Speaking of ACERB, y'all might recall that (ASCERBIC) was my guess Saturday for the clue Biting.
Would that be prescience Owen? Speaking of..Yes A's as nearly always. I love your silly ones that you undergrade. And of course C-Moe gets a W for both.
Let me guess "All the Presidents Men". Oops that's Gary. I meant BYE as in Tennis tournament ranking and a JT song with those words?
I was trying to remember Bossa Nova. 1963.
WC
Or perhaps,
Someone wet the bread
for a strong ending...
Misty,
Sorry to read of your missing publication. Would an old department have kept copies of promotion materials?
Yes, it's quite possible you didn't get a computer until '87. I recall that our school didn't provide computers until around that date. In the early '80s we owned one PC that was available in the dean's office. I would go there on weekends to learn how to work it. Back then, you had to learn some coding to search for anything.
In my field, the status quo ante computers affects us when seeking old theater reviews. Some top level newspapers have digitized their "morgue" going back before 1990, but others have not. That means a trip to the publisher's office or a library and still having to work those clumsy microfilm machines.
Ooh! I almost missed the party today! But I had brunch with two of my sisters and I'm sorry, but that surpasses the delights of the Blog though I love being here with you.
First, a CSO to my niece, EYDIE, who was named for Ms. Gorme. Her mother, my sister, loved to dance to those SAMBAS. Alas, she doesn't dance too much these days. But who does?
Owen:
You made me chuckle.
In our house we had BIGgirlsBEDs but I saw the BBB theme at BIGBOYBED. Nice, Jeff, thank you. The only crunch for me was ABRADE/DENEB which I've seen many times but ABRAsE seemed reasonable. I like the word HOARY just don't ask me why. It sounds quirky.
Thank you, Argyle. Are you getting ready for the season? It's going to be here before we know it.
I hope you are all having a lovely day!
Good afternoon, Argyle and friend. I had to check my calendar today to make sure this is Monday. I'm in the group who found the puzzle a bit of a challenge for the first day of the work week.
Hand up for Begat before BEGOT. DENEB was an unknown, and will probably be forgotten unless it appears in a puzzle later this week!
Having only sisters, we didn't have BIG BOY BEDS, rather we had a Youth Bed.
QOD: As my father used to tell me, the only true sign of success in life is being able to do for a living that which makes you happy. ~ “Weird” Al Yankovic (b. Oct. 23, 1959)
Misty, quick note - have to do some shrub-trimming while still daylight before the garbage-man cometh tomorrow.
WC sleuthed and found your article (I think)! WC, how in the world did you find that title?
Googled it and came up with only a link to an excerpt. I'm positive that our IT-extraordinaires can come up with a better link. My link requires registering with JSTOR. (If this indeed is your published article.)
https://www.jstor.org/stable/41152724?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents
Good luck, Misty, a well-liked/respected professor must always deliver on her students' requests! :0
Joined the party too late yesterday to comment. Perps to the rescue! ANI, ADU, AHMED, RIKER, FISK. Got the theme on all except BEATSMEME? Huh? Beats Me? (Viral video about Dre’s headphones) Least favorite.
TTP, you were traipsing in my neck o’ woods, except I’m S of 43rd.
Bill G, thank you for posting the pics – I am so envious. Closest beach is Galveston – yuk. When I first vacationed in Cancun in the 70’s I was amazed at what a beach really could look like.
Jinx, yes, I’m more familiar with hatchet man rather than ax man. Guess it’s a Southern thing.
PK, glad your sister and her home are safe.
Anon-T, liked Gibbons’ style of handling the interview. “Office Space” is one of my favs from years ago.
Today:
Wow Argyle, you outdid yourself on the links. My fav was Burn, Baby, Burn. Oh, those were the days when musical groups appeared in funky costumes, complete with fancy footwork, and a full band – a real performance. Well, yes, that was long before MTV/studio-created music videos debuted, now common (some are downright weird IMO). Sorry, Tawnya and Anon-T. BYT (B4 UR time)
Hahtoolah, loved your Yankovic QOD. Preached that to my nieces/nephew; I learned that the hard way while working as a legal secretary.
Beautiful day tomorrow in H-town, low humidity, low temps - high 70’s!
Hi Everyone;
Very, very late to the dance as my luncheon guests didn't leave until 5:00. Took me about an hour to clean up and then I had to read all the comments but, here I am, better late than never! My only nagging problem was accepting White with rage=Hoary? Thanks to Argyle's expo, White with age solved that question. Otherwise, a smooth solve.
Thanks, Jeff, for an easy, breezy start to the week and thanks, Santa, for solving my Mr. Magoo moment.
Have a great day.
"Why Study in Tripoli" I have no idea. It was a neat picture though.
TxMs @ 5:33 ~ Thanks to your reminder, my garbage is now at the curb! 😉
Yes, Wilbur, I think that is the Ibsen article--I'll keep working on trying to find it. Thank you too, Ol'Man Keith and TXMs, for the kind words.
Misty, I'm wondering how the student in the mid-east knew about that paper and got your email address?
Misty: Never done this before, but I think I've now got your article at
https://1drv.ms/f/s!AlP525FAAduGgpp8y7xTVwMj05sWug
My wife has a JSTOR password thru her work at the state library, and I got it from her months ago, but this is the first time I've used it. Also only the second time I've shared a file from my private cloud, and the first was just a single file. This should be a folder with 14 files inside. It wasn't available as a text file, so you're getting a .gif or .png of each individual page.
Thank you for the reply, Argyle. I did a Google search on that image and it is from the Levantine Institute of Tripoli... In Tripoli, Lebanon rather than in Tripoli, LIBYA.
This Treaty of Tripoli is an interesting bit of history of the Tripoli that is now in LIBYA. Signed by President John Adams, Article 11 states that "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
Ah Argyle?! I am back in the present. Well, it was fun while it lasted.
Owen, thanks for your update. Though it too only contained pps 3-15 of Misty's article as did my previous link. Only Misty will know what the mysterious first two pages contained. :0
Mark S @ 11:28 ~ Thanks to your reminder, Meagan Leavey is now in my Netflix queue. 😉
Hi All!
That's pretty cool Jeff; three BBBs that are songs. Too bad Bit By Bit is only 8-letters.
Another thing about BIG BOY BED that's out-lierly - there's no BY in it :-)
Like D-O, TTP, and others, I FIW. I left the S in ABRAsE and the A in MAMBaED. Oh well, with c/a's like Jazzman's job == GIG, I had fun.
Thanks Argyle for the Expo and learning me BRICK BY BRICK was also a song. I enjoyed (most) all the side-links (gotta go back and finish a few).
WOs: EDGEd, Right Tackles b/f RBs (I don't know football). Hand-up: BEGaT.
ESPs: GORME, BEBE, REA, ELLAS, ARNE
Fav: Base on Balls clue. WS starts tomorrow! Go 'Stros!
{A,A} {cute, ha!}
Tin - for your Booze-clue: SPECS.
Picard - If you like Cajun cooking, get to know EMERIL Lagasse's cook books. When I first got to Houston he was book-signing at a Barnes & Noble near our apartment. I got one for me and one for a college-chum who wanted to be a chef but, if his dad was paying for school, he had to be an accountant.
Misty - that's pretty cool that your work is still in demand.
Hahtoola - Funny you you said you had to double check it was Monday. I got here and it was Friday! C, Eh! noticed the little SNAFU too. :-)
Cheers, -T
Since the page numbers were of the magazine it was printed in, I'd expect pages 1 and 2 were the magazine's table of contents and any other front matter, perhaps the cover or ads.
I tried page 1 of Misty's paper*. Btw. I hope the font will be large enough.
TX-Ms, about 30 seconds. Note: I left it to the heavy hitters to get the printable version.
Argyle, nice write-up. I'll come back for the links.
WC
* It's a little over my head
Dear Owen, Wilbur, TX Ms, and everyone--I can't believe how unbelievably kind and helpful you all are in helping me get a copy of the article. I sent Sarah in Iran the various links, which are too small for me to actually copy them, but I'm hoping she'll get help and be able to check them out. Wow! Owen, you found a copy of my article--amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you all! I'll let you know tomorrow if and how things worked!
The friendly connectivity on this Blog is astonishingly impressive! Congratulations to all you who jumped in to help Misty locate her missing paper! Misty, what a lucky person you are, as are we all, to have these intensely helpful friends who also happen to be technically savvy. It makes me dizzy.
It makes me dizzy with joy and gratitude too, Lucina!
