It's a Will Thing

Mr. Shortz will pop in this Friday (2) on the syndicated "Martha Stewart Show." We'll see if Martha is more of a crossword lady or a sudoku girl. But hey, Shortz gets a sweeps episode! Good work.

Also, a very nice job on the 25x in the July Games magazine. Harvey Estes has put together a winning puzzle that does not contain any words shorter than five letters.

The slot had previously been occupied by puzzles edited by Fred Piscop and others. Expect the same quality of puns, wordplay and good humor in Merl's Washington Post puzzles.

Here is the link to the NPR story page.
