Please note that the WSJ will not be published on Monday February 19th. So you will not be notified that you have won the mug until Tuesday. However the contest closes Sunday night at 11:59 pm. And we will have our normal lamentations for @The XWord Rabbit after midnight on Sunday.

Ashore! Saw one part immediately but was a silly goose about the other for a bit.
I ask myself that all the time (in life and in metas). Good luck, Muggles!

Ashore on the beach or on a sandbar soon to be covered by the tide.
EDIT: I have a candidate for the Rabbit Award.

Ditto!
I’ll predict a big crowd for the zoom solves this week.
If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

On the beach. Not my fave Shenk puzzle, but that’s just my probably uninformed opinion. I’m happy to be here on page 1 and to have such nice friends on or near the beach. And doesn’t the cabana boy look nice in his new Speedo?

That took me an embarrassingly long time considering I belong to that group of people.

On the beach! Lovely aha!! Old Fashioned, 4 pillars style!!! Page one!!!!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

On Naboo. Landed after being waylaid in a space-time continuum. Hey, is that @MikeyG in the crowd?
