Gene Newman was a USAF cryptologist during the Korean War and is a retired engineer and journalist, including stringing for the N.Y. Times, being a crossword puzzle creator for the New York Times and USA Today. That’s it for now unless he gets better on the kazoo.
Very clever.
Funny!
Crossword puzzle creator….Respect.
Great story! Perfect title, too! In admiration.
Humorous piece, including the title.
Great piece!! Been there, on the bridge stuck in traffic, but it wasn’t as fun as your story!
