Easy?

I was feeling very pleased with myself for completing the NYTimes crossword puzzle on Wednesday. Seriously, I got every clue and you know the puzzles get progressively harder as the week goes on ...so I was feeling smug. I thought, "oh, go ahead, check out rex parker's blog and see how he rated this one. I'm guessing medium..." HA! His rating--EEEEEEEEEASY. I mean it, there were at least that many es in his easy. Serves me right.
