THEME:   phrases missing the first word, TAKE
   
GOOD ONES:     
Title:  "Misstakes"   
Record listings?   CRIMES [not LP's]    
Openings to fill   CAVITIES [not jobs]   
Ties in Tokyo   OBIS [not relationships]   
Cooler in hot weather   ICE TEA  [not the state of being]   
O staff, briefly   EDS [Oprah's magazine]   
   
BTW:   
Not ANGSTE again! --- it was poor last week and hasn't gotten any better.   
   
MACHE and TREF are also not English.   
   
Oddly, the theme clues without the verb take are syntactically not parallel.  It's not a problem today because the theme requires the verb --- unlike yesterday's outright lack of concern for language structure.   
   
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
