We might be a TOUGHCROWD, but we certainly wouldn't begrudge a round of applause for this BUENO Wednesday crossword by Ross Trudeau, with several laugh out loud answers, including (especially) the theme. Jean cruised through it, Mike hummed a SADSONG while hung up on the image of sheep grazing around a TARN, watching a video by famed actress Lisa TONET. Definitely a 5 squares on the JAMCR scale, thank you Mr. Trudeau! We love feedback! Send us a text... Contact Info: We love listener m...

Jean gets stuck in the bottom left corner, and Mike makes a HUMANERROR at the corner of 49D - Literature Nobelist Mario Vargas _____ and 52A - Singer/dancer/actress Falana. Still, any time that we can almost complete a Saturday crossword is ONEFINEDAY, and any puzzle that includes such memorable answers as TARN (42A - Alpine Lake) and works in both THESENTINEL and CITADEL has to be a 5 squares on the JAMCR scale.
