I don’t do a lot of crossword puzzles, but when I do, I can’t stand leaving a few clues unanswered. I tried just using a search engine to search for answers, but that didn’t work at all. Then when I searched for crossword help<\/a>, I found the OneAcross<\/a> web site. You can enter the clue, and then an answer pattern. For instance, a clue I couldn’t get today was 6 across Patronage. I entered patronage as the clue, and then .E..S<\/a> (the periods are place holders, and I knew the E and S) and the site came back with the word AEGIS<\/a>. The word is clickable and it gives you a possible definition. As it turns out, it was right and it then helped me get another 6 clues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
