Deservedly, First And Foremost Is The CROSSWORD PUZZLE

________________________________________________________________________________________________


 
 
This is
NYTimes.com
puzzle home page

Of course,
the world famous
Crossword Puzzle
gets top billing

Then
there are six 
other puzzles listed
beneath:

The utterly addictive
Spelling Bee
+
the almost equally
addictive
Wordle
are listed
immediately 
below it
(after I X-ed out an advert)

Please note
the puzzle listed last
of the six
is ALWAYS
the one I do first

That is the Sudoku puzzle
which has a global following
but is lowly regarded by
the most influential newspaper
on the planet

Why is that so?
 
After extensive studies,
the New York Times 
research department 
determined that 
Sudoku is a puzzle designed
for people who need 
something to do 
while picking their nose

Do I dispute this research?
Hell no!
Call me
