If you are a BUST reader, then you’re famliar with the special BUST-infused crossword puzzles that appear in every issue. They’re put together for us by the lovely and talented word nerd, Deb Amlen (who also does the crossword puzzles for the Onion). Well, as of today, Deb’s also the puzzle meister behind the New York Time’s crossword puzzle blog, Word Play. If you like to do the New York Times crossword puzzles (or at least try doing them) and have ever found yourself stuck, the blog is the place to go. There, other crossworders like yourself share their trials and tribulations with the puzzle that day. I really love how each day’s blog post starts with an image that represents one of that day’s answers. It’s a really geeky inside joke for nerdsters. Anyway, congratulations Deb!
