		<description><![CDATA[Mike Buckley&#8217;s New York Times crossword The theme is all VANITY, which can precede the first part of each theme answer: 17a. MIRROR OF THE MIND is not a familiar-sounding phrase to me or my husband. As for vanity mirrors, apparently the term applies to many different sorts of mirrors. 28a. CASEWORKER, that&#8217;s solid.

		<description><![CDATA[Stu Ockman&#8217;s New York Times crossword A quote theme! We get one or two of those a year from Will Shortz &#38; Co. And that&#8217;s plenty if you ask me, though this particular quote is perfectly fine: Confucius said,&#8221;REAL KNOWLEDGE IS / TO KNOW THE EXTENT / OF ONE&#8217;S IGNORANCE.&#8221; This is more eloquent than [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Patrick Berry&#8217;s New York Times crossword Patrick Berry, a 64-word grid, long answers stacked four or five rows deep in every corner, and hardly any 3- or 4-letter answers? How can you go wrong? Well, for starters, it was somehow crazy-easy for me, taking just two seconds longer than the Thursday puzzle, which in turn [...]]]></description>

Every time I change directions, the active square jumps to the side. I tried a few different options in the &#8220;solving&#8221; menu, to no [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Brendan Quigley&#8217;s New York Times crossword I&#8217;m not remotely in a blogging mood tonight, so let&#8217;s keep this short. Quote theme! It&#8217;s funny, and though it&#8217;s still a dreaded quote theme, it strings you along decently. Brendan not-Quigley BEHAN quipped, &#8220;I SAW A NOTICE / WHICH SAID / &#8216;DRINK CANADA / DRY&#8217; AND I&#8217;VE / [...]]]></description>

(Gareth, we&#8217;re not talking to you Southern Hemisphere types.) Wouldn&#8217;t a nice, warm bowl of soup hit the spot? (Morning blog readers, we&#8217;re not talking to you.
