You are very welcome. I’ve had similar comments from a number of people (privately). Welcome to the rehab center!

HT: Thanks for the reminder. I’ve done the update (see new post).

It’s a neat coincidence that you reminded me when you did, as I had intended to get to the new post today, having been reminded by seeing former President Bill Clinton on C-SPAN just a short while ago and thinking that he is perhaps the most famous crossword regular around!

Anyway, thanks again. Hope you enjoy the 2008 crop of puzzles as much as the 2007 batch.

Why can’t I access the Sunday puzzles for Sunday, July 1, for the Boston Globe, Phila Inquirer and Washington Post? I get the NYT and WSJ.

Thank you for this wonderful site.

I have been a crossword puzzle addict since the mid 1970’s when the great jazz pianist Jimmy Rowles introduced me to the intoxicating diversion. We went so far as to have two copies of the NY Times delivered to our Greenwich Village digs each day to prevent a battle over who would get to work the puzzle. I discovered that many jazz musicians and singers shared this passion.

Since the inception of my Blog and other distractions, I’ve been stashing a small mountain of delights to printed out for pool side fun.

Sorry for the off-topic comment, but I didn’t have another way of reaching you. I’m writing to announce a Google custom search engine which searches a number of crossword blogs, including Across and Down. You can find it here. I hope you will find it useful, and that you will provide a link to it on your blog.
