Just a quick note to let you know that my good buddy, Matt Lees, has one of his amazing crossword puzzles published today in the Saturday, New York Times! This is quite prestigious and I encourage you to pick up a copy and give it a try. It’s a challenge, but lotsa fun. And don’t feel bad if you can’t do the whole thing, I could only finish half of it and that was with help from the whole family.

Some of you might recall that Matt created the puzzles, Matt’s Mindbenders, in my DeanZine which you can still find in the Newsletter section of my website at www.deanfriedman.com They’re a lotta fun.

Anyway, Mazel Tov (congrats) to Matt. And a Happy New Year - LaShana Tova - to my tribe and best wishes to you all. (Oh, by the way that’s a hint.)
