Bill Clinton has a new job: He's a Crossword puzzle tester for the New York Times

New York Times Magagine | De 5, 2004 | one man's opinion

[101st-Eagle]

I downloaded the puzzle and found the oddest thing. The upright columns were all bent to the left.

[Gabz]

Now you went and ruined the puzzle for me - I don't get it until next week........my papers run the NYT puzzle a week late.

[ken5050]

I thought you'd get a kick out of this..

[ken5050]

It's not ruined..sorry, though...the normal Sunday puzzle, which is very challenging, as you know, is easily 20x harder that this..I was bummed..

[Mears]

I was wondering why you had so many keywords.

[ChadGore]

Re: .is that the final total..

I looked it up.

See new tag line.

[Gabz]

We do not have a "local" Sunday paper here, so 2 of the 3 papers we pick up on Sunday are chosen for 2 reasons - They carry the NYT crossword and have coupons!! We get the Washington Times for News and Commentary, not the fluff.

[texasbluebell]

Look up at the top of the thread, right after the article (well, now it's right after all the keywords) it says Click to add keyword.

Just click on that, and it lets you put in the keyword.

I had fun on the Kerry threads, my favorite keyword to add was DORK.

[ken5050]

Silly me, too obvious, I guess...I shall now go practice tieing my shoes..

[Fiddlstix]

Yeah. That's the one.

[kitkat]

ON?

Is there an automatic default setting on FR that pops them in whenever "Clinton" appears in the header?

That would be a pretty nifty FeatuRe. ;-)

T'warn't me, btw.. I'll have to check 'em out.

[JOE6PAK]

PORNOGRAPHY; PREDATOR; RAPE; RAPIST; SALLYPERDUE; SANDRAALLENJAMES; SCANDAL; SCUMBAG; SEXUALHARASSMENT; SHAME; SHERRIEDENSUK; SINGLEWIDETRAILER; SLEAZE; SLICKWILLIE; STAINEDBLUEDRESS;

Ya gotta love it!

[NormsRevenge]

No 2 letter words.. Is that so? ;-P

[Cvengr]

I wondered why the cross word puzzles were now sized to solve in crayon.

[Hank Rearden]

Do you know how all those "keywords" magically appeared on my thread?

I think they are now the standard-issue collective FReeper Wisdom on Sh$%head Clinton. IIRC, this collection is from the Lie-Bary opening thread a few weeks ago; I know because a couple of them are mine.

They need to appear in all Sh$%head threads.

[Michael_S]

Thank goodness you didn't put 'What people do with cigars' as a clue. :-)

[Calvin Locke]

Answer: "without saying the word 'I' "

Wow. Clinton and Limbaugh have something in common.

[Xenalyte]

That's just funny, mother*%(^er.
