New record for my Monday today! 4:02! Might be awhile til I beat that one

Nice! I also had a PB today but a bit slower at 5:33. Hopefully I can crack the 5m mark on one lucky Monday.

Monday crossword tomfooleryA good Monday solve, but I had to take the L because I made an error in one square couldn't figure out where. I was in a rush.

44A "Haw's partner". I thought it was HEE, as in "HEE HAW", the sound of a donkey. Not a reader of tabloids so I didn't know what to expect for 30D "Tabloid twosome".

spoiler


definitely had HEE instead of HEM at first, but was able to eventually get the cross with ITEM. That was a bit of trickery though.

0:33, and ugh I thought I had it super fast on just the 5 across clues, but I filled in HELP for the last one. One bad answer sunk me. Would have been 0:11 if I got it right.
