minus-squareLCPOPMlinkEnglish1•edit-21 year agoRelatively smooth solve, aside from two clues – one of which I’m confused about. spoilers For 14A “Like Venus, but not Aphrodite”, I initially wrote WOMAN. Took me a while to spot that error. 40A “Commercial ending with Water” PIK? As in Waterpik, the water flosser? That ends in pik, and not water… Edit: I guess if they phrased the clue as “Commercial ending, with Water” and included the comma, it would be less ambiguous.
