NYT Spelling Bee 4-25-21 final

As I’ve mentioned before, I have been watching The Blacklist. I don’t like the show. I feel like the writing is lacking in inspiration. The plotlines are predictable but not in a fun way. There are so many things that don’t make sense even in the universe of the show. But I watch it anyway. Probably because I like to watch good shows with Calah, and there are so many seasons of this show that I don’t have to find a new one for a while. Why I bring this up today is that I watched an episode and recognized an actor as The Giant in Twin Peaks. And I saw LOGLADY in today’s (properly) omitted word list.

All kinds of Tiwn Peaks stuff here!
Don’t read this if you care about the story. It’s unmistakably Carel Struycken.

Yesterday I missed AMEBA, AMEBAE, BANTAM, MATTE (SHAME ON ME), MENTEE, and METE.

Meatier Misses

ABEAM: On a line at right angles to a ship’s or an aircraft’s length. Yet there is no ALEE. OK.
ABETMENT: Assistance to do something sinister.
BATTEMENT: A movement in which one leg is moved outward from the body and in again.

It’s like going deep into a textbook on the first day of class. It’ll either be an adventure or a quick drop.

EMANANT: issuing or flowing forth, emerging from or as if from a source.

Today’s summary

Final score: 53 words for 214 points.
Genius minimum: 210 points.
First word: GOOGOL.
Pangram: DOGGEDLY.

About raabidfun

I'm a guy living the #raabidfun lifestyle. I figured I would create a blog about crossword puzzles I do. The idea is to do the NYT crossword and the WSJ crossword daily as much as I can. That includes when I don't finish and have clearly failed. They can be difficult. Also I am not an attorney, and any legal analysis in this blog reflects my interpretation, which means it can be flawed and should not be relied upon for use in legal matters (especially against me).
