Possible Title: Grid Play
Theme: Guess it’s the grid itself which pleases my sense of proportion
Good Ones:
Lincoln’s place CENT [I thought CURB because I had the C]
One who’s at home on the range? COOK
n.b. The cluing throughout was thoughtful and challenging making this puzzle fun.
By the Way:
GUNN was the answer for the Mancini scored TV show, but the title was Peter Gunn. Ray Anthony played the trumpet, I believe. The show and theme song were favorites of mine when we first got a TV set (’58 or 9). Craig Stevens, Lola Albright, and Mother’s flashed back with this entry. Thanks, Jeff, for the memory.
Some Nits to Pick:
Not sure about RITARD; I think RIT is the abbreviation for ritardando, but maybe some “retarded” list of abbreviations exists in support of the entry.
RATING: ;D ;D ;D Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
