Happy Monday, everyone! sumdaze here with a theme that seems to have arisen out of nowhere.
 |
| Theme: Ta-da! |
18 Across. Long garment with no waistline: TENT DRESS.
A POP-UP TENT is a tent that is ready to use as soon as it is unfolded, without requiring a frame to be assembled first.

24 Across. "These aren't the droids we're looking for" speaker: STORM TROOPER.
Our constructors threw us a curve ball with this one. If you read the clue too quickly you might have wanted to answer Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, Ben said "you're" and the STORM TROOPER responded "we're". Here is the scene from the 1977 Star Wars movie. (The STORM TROOPERs are wearing white body armor.) (1:29 min.)
Read about a POP-UP STORM here.
38 Across. Activity for a green-thumbed apartment dweller: WINDOW GARDENING.
A POP-UP WINDOW is a small advertisement or banner that appears in the foreground of one's screen while browsing a website.

49 Across. Aftereffects of a great read: BOOK HANGOVER. I do not recall hearing this term before today but I have definitely experienced one. Here is how one blogger describes it:
A “book hangover” is the slangy shortcut for the feeling when a reader finishes a book—usually fiction—and they can’t stop thinking about the fictional world that has run out of pages. The story is over, but the reader misses the characters or the atmosphere of the novel.

| I bought this elaborate POP-UP BOOK for my grandmother when she developed dementia. It turned out to be a good gift because her visitors enjoyed looking through it with her. |
Now for the reveal:
60 Across. Right-click result, often, and where the starts of 18-, 24-, 38-, and 49-Across can be found?: POP-UP MENU.
If you right-click on your PC*, a MENU of options POPs-UP. Here is an example:
The reveal clue also says that the starts of the themed clues can be found on a POP-UP MENU. I take that to mean that if you were looking at a menu (list) of things that POP-UP, you might see these four items: TENT, STORM, WINDOW, and BOOK.
Before we POP on over to the rest of the clues, here's a CSO to all the POPS on the Corner. 
Across:
1. Financial liability of concern to creditors: DEBT. and 6 Down. Have a 1-Across with: OWE TO.

Yes, I solved the puzzle. And, yes, it did seem
like “a walk in the park.” But there was only one problem. I couldn’t see the connection between the themed answers and even after the ‘explanation’ from Sumdaze, I still don’t get it. Nonetheless, FIR, so I’m happy.
FIR without erasure.
I know Duck Duck Go from the TV ads, but not goose.
Don't think I've heard of a TENT DRESS, but I have heard that someone buys his/her clothes from Omar the Tentmaker.
Maybe the best whistle song ever is from Bridge Over the River KWAI. BTW - Is the proper pronunciation to end KWAI "eye" or "a"? I've mostly heard "eye," but we had a president that insisted "a" was correct. Sounded like what you think "quay" should sound like, but it doesn't.
I like my TEES on the loose side, but around here there are plenty of tight ones as well. Some of those enhance the allure of the neighborhood, others not so much.
Click and Clack used to use "Sonja HENIE's tutu" as an expression of surprise. Kinda like Slim Pickins' "What in the wide, wide world of sports is a-goin' on here?"
Thanks to Amy and Katie for the Monday eye opener, and to sumdaze for another fine review.
Good morning!
This one seemed crunchier than the normal Monday breakfast fare. Nice. Took about two minutes longer than normal, too. Thanx, Amy, Katie, and sumdaze.
DEBT: I've got a good credit score, but it'll never be a great one. No mortgage, and I pay off my credit cards monthly. Those sound like good things, but they "ding" a credit score.
SEGUE: The Segway was supposed to be the greatest transportation invention ever. Over the life of the product only about 140,000 were sold. Production ended in 2020.
Duck Duck Goose: Don't think I've ever heard of it. I do use the Duck Duck Go search engine. (Hi, Jinx.)
Blue Suede Shoes: The Elvis recording (1956) was a cover of the Gene Vincent original (1955). Both guys recorded for Sun Records in Memphis back in the day.
Good Morning! Not a fan of today’s puzzle or theme. Nothing specific to comment on, just some obscurities. STORMTROOPER, BOOK HANGOVER, LISA LESLIE, RINSO, KANT
I am not familiar with Duck duck goose, so I guessed wrong at dNA instead of RNA. I should have paid more attention to the “shape” in the clue.
Thanks, sumdaze for the fun & info. Loved the groom with the VOWels.
Took 4:28 today for me to follow my blocker.
I knew today's actress (Barbra), but was unfamiliar with "Rinso" and "Rory", so a lucky guess was needed at that intersection. I also hadn't heard of "book hangover" or "tent dress."
SubG, "pop up" can precede the starting theme words: pop-up tent, pop-up window, pop-up book, and pop-up storm.
FIR. I went off the reservation once by throwing down baas instead of maas. But I quickly saw my error and moved forward.
When I got finished i stared at the reveal failing to see the connections. I had to come here to have it explained to me. Luckily for me it didn't affect the solve.
Overall an enjoyable puzzle.
Of the 140,000, 139,900 were sold to mall cops and real law enforcement organizations. The other 100 were sold to companies running SEGUE tours of cities. I forgot where I saw those statistics - in fact, I may have made them up. Guess I'm ready for network TV news, except I have a face meant for radio.
Good Morning:
I, too, was befuddled trying to see the connection of the answers to Pop Up Window, which indicates to me that the reveal clue was not as clear as it might have been. In any case, the solve was smooth and Monday appropriate with the exceptions of the never-heard of Book Hangover, the unknown Lisa of the WNBA, and to younger solvers, Sonja Henie. Big Moments, to me, is today’s green paint candidate.
Thanks, Amy and Katie, and thanks, sumdaze, for the fun and facts, especially the excerpt from Hamilton, the Shark comic, and the Vowel-reciting groom!
Have a great day.

-Nice job, Sumdaze!
DNF, I left the R blank not knowing whether to enter RING or DING. I thought there was some crunch for a Monday. The theme puzzled me but thanks to sumdaze nice recap, I get it now. I liked that last request joke.
Well, Amy and Katie, I had to spend more time on today's puzzle than your last one. Today's was nicely structured, such as using your longest theme answer as a 15-letter grid-spanner to anchor the middle.
But I was befuddled by some of the puzzle's features. For one thing, I am not into fashion, and so was gobsmacked by your fashion clues. And some of your main theme answers stopped me in my tracks. I was not familiar with either pop-up storms or pop-up windows.
Nevertheless, you came up with a clever theme, and I was able to FIR, thanks to some WAGs and well-placed perps.
Before I finish my nitpicking, I have never heard of a book hangover, but I think I like the concept. Then there is the matter of the ubiquitous OREO. I have come to believe that there must be an organization
for puzzle constructors called the See Who Can Come Up with the Cleverest Clue for "Oreo" Society.
Again thanks, Katie and Amy, for a well-constructed and straightforward Monday excursion that was fun (for the most part) to solve.
A little harder than the usual Monday but more thoughtful and fun to do. Droids and STORMTROOPERS (?), BOOK HANGOVER (on yes), window gardening (herbs).
My funny uncle visited my very large aunt on a day that she had washed and hung some of her DRESSES on a close line. He - I see the circus is in town.”, She -Oh really!”, He - “yes, I see all the TENT(s) in the yard”. Like the Queen, she was not amused.
Sonja HENIE was a beautiful and famous skater and movie actress, always playing herself. The advancement in equipment, technique, and athleticism makes the comparison between Ms. HENIE and, say, Tara Lipinski no contest.
Does anyone remember the radio jingle “RINSO white, RINSO bright, happy little wash day song”?
Thank you sumdaze for starting the day with the Jack-in-the-Box, the opening video and song for my TV show Romper Room. IT’S image brings back good memories and thoughts of BIG MOMENTS.
Happy day, all!
Hola! Last night I thought my computer was a goner but today it opened with no problem so it's a mystery as to what happened. Anyway, I'm pleased it's working. And today's puzzle worked well, too. Thank you, Amy and Katie. BOOK HANGOVER sounds negative but for me, after reading a good book I have an "after glow". In fact, last night I finished GOOD NIGHT, IRENE and loved it.
Many, many years ago I recall reading in TIME Magazine about BARBRA's desire to spell her name that way. And I had a good friend named BARBARA whom we called Barbie. She had a large personality which endeared her to everyone. Sadly, she has been gone a while and I miss her.
Today we are having a birthday lunch for myself and my friend, Joy. Our firends will meet us at our favorite restaurant. Have a wonderful day, everyone!
I don't know why I've lost my identity! I am now anonymous! But it's Lucina comeenting above.
Trying again.
Is it your birthday today? If so happy birthday.
Sumdaze brought a smile to my face with the Jack in the Box and her "theme that seems to have arisen out of nowhere." I did see the POP UP theme, but POP UP STORM did not RING a bell with me until Sumdaze explained it.
Duck duck goose was a popular game on my elementary school playground. We sat in a circle, so it had to be RING, not dING.
DNK LISA or RORY but perps and reasonable guesses prevailed.
Thank you, Amy and Katie, for a little Monday fun. Now I'm going to suffer a crossword HANGOVER, which seems to be a good thing.
No, today is not my birthday but my friend, Joy, whose birthday is Nov. 8th, and I celebrate together. We do it now because December is so busy for all of us. My birthday is Dec. 6th.
Definitely a little crunchier than normal. Pop-up storms, pop-up tents etc. I didn't pay much attention to the theme, thanks Sumdaze. I think I'll go get a copy of the "Wapo". heh, hen
Managed a FIR in a typical Monday time of about 10 minutes, although I was unfamiliar with a few of the themer terms, haven’t hear of pop up TENT, but I did at one time own a pop up camper. Pop up STORM was also new. DNK BOOK HANGOVER but I’ve had a few, movie hangovers also, where a film is so compelling it sticks with you a few days. And speaking of movies, “Bridge on the River KWAI”, ranks somewhere in my top 10 of all time favorite flicks. I’ve worn both a pair of blue SUEDE and red SUEDE shoes. You can drink an OREO flavored Coke along with your Coke flavored OREO, I’ve seen them side by side in stores. The parent company of RINSO sure has a diverse portfolio of brand names. Thank you Amy and Katie for the morning fun!
sumdaze ~ always enjoy your Monday recaps and all the graphics you include! That pop up book, did you happen to get that at a store called “Lovepop”? They make some beautiful greeting cards also.
I was surprised some people were unfamiliar with duck duck goose.
I think my favorite clue for OREO was “stale crossword cookie”.
I found it easy but I had to guess between DNA and RNA. "Duck, duck, goose" was an unknown game (know of the Duck, Duck, Go browser) but DING is something your car gets in a parking lot. RING is a shape.
BOOK HANGOVER is a new term for me but the perps too care of it.
Another Pop-up could have been AD NAUSEAM.
BARBRA- is there another Streisand?
RINSO- I remember the ads from many moons ago. There was also a detergent named SALVO, which was a tablet.
I'll join Sumdaze in never having seen "Gilmore Girls" and RORY was perped.
There was a British band in the early 70's named URIAH Heep.
A bit more crunch than I'm comfortable with, but stumbled through to the FIR. More unknown names, and Grr/Argh made for a bit of irritation, and I had to wait for sumdaze to 'splain the "pop-up" part. BTW, thanks for the Johnny Horton tune!
Johnny Horton lived in my city, Shreveport, and I still remember when he died in a car wreck when I was in the 5th or 6th grade. Bismark, North, and New Orleans. Both Johnny and Hank Williams had married the same woman.
The invention of the SEGWAY was a byproduct of Dean Kamen's attempt to invent a wheelchair that could climb stairs.
Whew! Nearly FIR w/ DUEt as "Hamilton" climax. ALASKA fixed that.
Hi All!
First, thanks to Amy & Katie for some granola in my Monday.
Second, thanks to sumdaze for a wonderful expo.
My normal is #3:
WOs: [see: above], Aria -> AMEN
ESPs: LISA and other names.
Fav: URIAH Heep [fwd to :38]
Four: OK. Who didn't play Duck, Duck, Goose in Kindergarten? Really? The nuns had us kids sit in a circle (RING) and one kid runs around bopin' the others on the head. When running kid says Goose, the last kid he tapped runs after him. I don't remember how that bit resolves. Good fun though.
HANGOVER BOOK - Asimov's Foundation trilogy, Adams' HHGTTG, oh, so many others. It's like an NPR driveway moment where you just have to stay. Jinx know what I'm talkin' about. #CarTalk
//BTW, here's your Slim Pickensclip :-)
HG: I've heard that Rorschach joke before. But, it's still very funny.
Re: Rory - the girls loved the Gilmore ones. They even went to a meet & greet event in Austin during SxSW a few years back. Someone at The Corner even has snaps of their set.
Lunina - I know you when celebrate your birthday - it's the same day as Mom :-)
Cheers, -T
er, should be "a nearly FIW". Fingers, brain, and keyboard weren't in sync.
T ~ duck duck goose, you walk around the ring of kids sitting on the floor, bopping each one on the head saying “duck” for as many time as you wanted, when you bopped a kid and said “goose”, they got up and chased you around the outside of the ring and you sat in their empty spot, or something like that, maybe NaomiZ has a better recollection. 😂
