Directions: Read the shaded clues on the left, top to bottom, then on the right, top to bottom, to sound out the chorus of this puzzle’s theme song. PS: I’m well aware that there’s no such thing as a two letter word in American crosswords. That’s why there are no clues for them. The four exceptions are self-explanatory.Difficulty: Thursday ©2009Questions/Comments: Michaeldemetrus@gmail.com
