Here for the NYT Spelling Bee, photography, history, all things naval, and books. Holding the fort in deepest Magastan.
ABC News was having fun with me yesterday. Got my hopes up for a second there...

Getting this too much with today's Bee. Kinda sucks the fun out of it eventually.

Solving the Bee without any grid, lists, or hints is so very satisfying.

FURTHER UPDATE:

I let Col. Shappert (Ret) know that many people wanted to express their appreciation and thanks to him. He has set up an email for that purpose (he doesn't do social media.) If you want to send your appreciation, he's at B52Dpilot [at] protonmail.com.

Got to about 200 pts before checking the @sbsolver.com grid. Adding to one's vocabulary should never be resisted, even if it means trawling the dictionary for that last word.
