PUZZLE #614
WORD SQUARES: PROJECTORS 9
There are a series of clues whose answers will fit into the provided grid, reading across and down. However, all of the answers are one letter too long to fit in properly, so each one must have either its first or last letter sticking out (or "projecting" out) of the grid. Once you're done, start at the top left and read the "Projectors" either clockwise or counterclockwise to get another word or phrase. In the example above, the Projectors spell out SAMPLE.
This week's FINAL ANSWER is the eight-letter name of a company based in Wisconsin
CLUES
• Cylindrical pasta that's one letter off from a certain coin
• Get all greasy, as a bodybuilder: 2 wds.
• Laser printer's powder
• Lie on one's rump and do nothing while something bad goes on: 2 wds.
• Neil deGrasse _____ (astrophysicist who lost on Celebrity Jeopardy)
• Part of "EU" or "USSR"
• Spiny (yet soothing) plants sometimes used in hand sanitizer
• The Perks of _____ a Wallflower (2012 coming-of-age film)
Once you believe you've figured out the FINAL ANSWER, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or even ask for a hint, though you'll be marked as having used one if you do so) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for a link to a .PDF version which you can print out!
