A strenuous Friday workout from Sridhar Bhagavathula, with lots of challenges ... pretty much everywhere. Jean had a spot of bother with the top-left corner, with 1A, Pitched poorly, OFFKEY, and 3D, Resource for music performers, FAKEBOOK being particular sticking points. Mike found the top right corner a tough slog, with 7A, Trace element?, STENCIL (cute); 17A, The Statue of Liberty, for one, COLOSSUS; and his personal favorite, 9D, If all ________ were laid end to end, they would not reach a conclusion (quip attributed to Shaw), ECONOMISTS; all causing at least temporary grief.
Still, it was a Friday, so we expect to be challenged, and Sridhar did not disappoint. Five squares on the JAMCR scale!
