I'm an entomologist specializing in native bee taxonomy. I'm retired and spend most of my days volunteering at the Bohart Museum of Entomology at UC Davis. I like traveling to "shithole" countries.

I have a friend who's angry at me because I refuse to be outraged. So she's mad about politics and mad that I'm not mad. What a sorry way to live. I'm too old to waste whatever little years I have left that way.

Once I had 4 of the 5 letters correct but misplaced in my start word, but I didn't get the correct answer until my last try (Phew!). There were just too many options using those letters.

Similarly, it's "the love of money is the root of all evil," not "money is the root of all evil."

The ONE album my mother refused to let me play when she was home. It was just TOO MUCH.

I'm always gratified when my opinion of a puzzle matches your snarky review on your blog.
