Crossword fans unite!

I know, I KNOW, this isn't poetry or literature, but people who like poetry and lit often times like crosswords...so I'm asking. Does anyone else here really enjoy crossword puzzles? My favorite of course is the New York Times. I still have the first one I finished by myself, that was last year and I actually clipped it and put it in a box. Just got done with today's, I did need a hint about a brand of rootbeer I've never heard of from the OM, but other than that.....it was mine.

I love crosswords! Of course, they're like golf though...you hate them and love them and hate them some more. Anyone else care to trade hints or anything?

I like the crosswords, but also things like cyptograms or word math. I haven't do so in a time but I often would buy Dell crossword puzzle magazines and try to do the whole thing in the month before the next one came out.

Yeah today's crossword didn't go so hot. Yesterday's was cake. All I know is that I've finished a Wednesday before so I can't say Tuesdays are too hard. I'm very disappointed today. :confused:
