Anyway, I’m still not sure why my blog had originally come up on Google searches. I do know a few Apus, but I don’t believe I’ve ever mentioned any of them here.

The answer is: Apu. I only figured it out by knowing or figuring out the words “rearmost” (like peanut gallery seats), “expiable” (not beyond redemption), and “studious” (painstaking). The third letter in each of those words is “Apu” (Slushy seller on “The Simpsons”). Sheesh. Will Shortz, as a friend of mine says, truly is a S.O.B. Have a good day.

Just thought I’d try Google. That’s WTF on the searches.
