MIA Once Again

Sorry I've been MIA . . . it's been a very busy time for me.

Meanwhile, enjoy this human-interest story about Vassar student Jonathan Garfinkel, who creates puzzles for his college paper.

Also, here are the theme answers to today's Billie Truitt Puzzle called "Get A Grip":

20A: Sweetheart (MAIN SQUEEZE)
41A: Short on Cash (FEELING THE PINCH)
57A: During a critical time (IN THE CLUTCH)

Will be back soon!
