        Answer key... except not guaranteed to be right. It's weird the way you have to write over the numbers.pic.twitter.com/jkcSMsNmwa

        Agreed. My first impression was that it was all 2-3 letter words. But then I read the clues and realized that you wrote over the numbers.

        For the answers, do I flip my phone upside down and scroll to the bottom of your feed?

        And it was originally called a “word-cross” puzzle. Arthur Wynn changed it to “cross-word” a few weeks later.

        1913 - the same year Wilson signed legislation that created Rothschild central bank (read ‘The Creature from Jekyll Island’). Hamilton was wrong! Jefferson was right! 1913 - also the same year IRS was created to fleece Americans and pay the interest on loans from FED. Treason
