In a typical daily puzzle, there are 3 to 5 theme entries out of around 76 total entries, which is why even the best theme can rarely carry an otherwise bland puzzle. The fact that you enjoyed the puzzle just fine is a testament to the quality of the puzzle in general.<BR/><BR/>As for a name. Hmmm... how about themeblivious?Pete Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00915253628212019131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6797119770533435005.post-4791568433659585932008-05-06T10:07:00.000-04:002008-05-06T10:07:00.000-04:00For some reason I never read the title of this puz...For some reason I never read the title of this puzzle and so missed the theme entirely.
