It was cute. Although it was pretty easy. Based on the clues a lot of the grid was circles. But good job anyway.
isn't derek more likely to drown than develop hydrophobia though?
Very Simple...too many positives given, but it was fun and an interesting plot.
Fun Even tho I got interrupted and had to start over Easy with all the positives , but challenging keeping them all straight Good puzzle!
very very funny
and yeah, I would agree that 15 minutes underwater would cure any philandering /amnesia problems, but would present a much bigger problem instead...
