I hate to admit it, but I've met my match.
I've been doing crossword puzzles since I was a teenager, so I've had a lot of experience. I do the New York Times daily and the big Sunday puzzles in ink. My sister says I'm bragging. Actually, pencil doesn't show up too well on newsprint.
As I said, I've met my match. I give up. No, I will not give up. I'll keep trying! When I go to my.att.net, the home page shows a directory for a multitude of activities beyond e-mail, and I'm easily sidetracked. So instead of checking my e-mail, I go looking for games. I thought I'd have fun with the daily crosswords, but they have me buffaloed. I hate to admit it, but they're beyond my capability to solve. I can fill in maybe 3-5 definitions, and that's it.
Maybe I'll just click on the "solve the puzzle" and see if I can get the flavor of the puzzles. They're probably British in origin, and Brit word puzzles always do me in.
There's also a daily jigsaw puzzle with easy, moderate, hard choices of solving. I discovered the only difference is the size of the pieces, so I go with the easy, which is big pieces. Much easier to see what I'm doing. Anyway, I do the jigsaws instead of the crosswords.
Sudoku is entirely beyond me. If I can fill one square, I'm happy. I'm usually good at word games, but not number games.
Anyone for Scrabble?
