There was a lot of water in today's grid - in 4D, Obstacle for a would-be castle attacker, MOAT; 35D, Beverage with a Big Mac, perhaps, LARGECOKE; and in it's purest state, 46D, Bottled water brand, DASANI. Yet in spite of all that,this puzzle was far from wet, in fact, just the opposite: a stellar Monday with multiple LOL clues, a great way to start out the work week. Also, we have a terrific bit of listener mail, so for all that, and more(!), download, listen up, and ... enjoy.Show note imagery: the state seal of Maine (which Mike insists does have a whale, but it's under water so you can't see it 😀)We love feedback!
