Petey and Rockn — Not much Rat could give away by reading him a column…..
but if he points out the “Find-It” in the Dinette Set before I get there, I’m lettin’ him have it.

In a clever ploy towards engaging their audience, today the PBS Little Theatre Players spend most of their time in extreme downstage blocking, far in front of the regular set backdrops, adding to the intimacy of their declamations!

Rat could have picked a harder crossword answer to give away. How hard could it be to get “EVE”?

@Number Six and Raspberry: My cell phone is the only phone I have. We haven’t had a landline since 2007, when we moved to Florida. Now, I would never use it while driving and there’s a lot of other cell phone etiquette that needs to be followed…but banning them altogether would leave some of us without any sort of phone.

If Mr. Cleveland can’t guess that clue, he deserves to have his crossword spoiled.
