Why The Internet Is Great

We get stuff like <a href="http://rexwordpuzzle.blogspot.com/search/label/Brendan%20Emmett%20Quigley">this</a>.

I didn't put a full effort on No. 0403, but I read Rex Parker's post for today anyway.

That guy's a freak. So's <a href="http://crosswordfiend.blogspot.com/">Amy Reynaldo.</a> FWIW: she tests some of my puzzles.

<a href="http://www.technorati.com/tag/Brendan+Emmett+Quigley">Here</a>'s a link to all her 'relevant' posts.

You are such a bad ass. Forget what I said earlier this week about the cravat and the pipe. You need a freaking samurai sword and a bottle of scotch.

Last weekend I <i>finally</i> finished that bottle of Bombay. Needless to say, I was a bit wierd for the rest of the night.

I kinda figured he's a freak after he described how he writes "F@CK Y00" next to clues when he does crosswords on paper... and then he re-does them in Across Lite.

Heh heh heh. I'll try to bring you something more appropriate next month.

Does <a href="http://crosswordfiend.blogspot.com/2008/04/friday-44.html">this</a> mean she finished yesterday's (Friday) NYT crossword in under 7 minutes? I had Bombay (London Dry) issues of my own, but, I needed a good hour on that thing to even to get one corner.

That's correct. She is the 15th fastest solver in the country.
