YOWIE3- Winter Olympics sleds LUGES4- Writers representative AGENT5- Have to have NEEDToday's MiniScreenshot: Erik KainDespite having fewer words than yesterdays Mini, I thought this one was harder. Or I was just off my game. 1-ACROSS was simple enough, since A Complete Unknown is a new movie about Bob Dylan. But then 2-ACROSS I kept thinking BLUSH instead of ROUGE. Even when I skipped it and got to 3-DOWN and LUGES, the U was in the right spot for BLUSH but it clearly wasnt the right answer. I guess Im not much of a makeup guy! In any case, this took me just about ten seconds longer than yesterday, at 1:48.How did you do?
