New York Times solution: Dec. 21, 2014
Below the fold is the solution to this week’s New York Times variety puzzle: a Puns and Anagrams by Mel Taub. It happened to use the same grid as the August P&A, and like most of this genre, I think it’s a hit or miss puzzle. You have to work through a lot of dreck to get to the really clever bits.
