You may have noticed that I’ve finally gotten Inteltainment.org to work as my domain name. WordPress’s documentation was way over the head of a tech doofus like me, but ChatGPT finally saved the day when I asked it what to do. Although ToughAsNails.net still drives here, I would much appreciate if you change your bookmarks! (For those who still use bookmarks, anyway.)
Please enjoy the first themeless of 2026. Happy New Year!

I’m way behind on your puzzles and just got to this one, which I really enjoyed. I’m of the demographic that is solid on CHARON, LEONARDO and ASTA and was clueless about the rest of the names in this grid – but crosses enabled me to work them out. Thank you for the challenge and fun.
