Dear Mr. Shortz,
As I am sure both our time is valuable, I'm not going to mince words. What is your problem? Why, pray tell, was this week's Sunday Crossword so simple, its caliber was at a Monday level. Yes, yes, you threw in a reference to Emile Durkheim, but that is Wednesday material, at best.
If this is your idea of a sick joke or some plot to give me a false sense of confidence, I do not appreciate your sense of humor. I suspect your plan is to lure me into doing the Crossword in pen, only to devastate me with clues regarding opera and archaic English vocabulary that has fallen out of use. Thank you Mr. Shortz, but no thank you. This pencil and trusty eraser will stay firmly in hand!
Good day sir. I said Good day!
Sarah
p.s. By the by, if you so happen to have the phone numbers of fellow Wordplay commentators, Jon Stewart or Mike Mussina (Go Yankees!), feel free to hook a girl up.
