    I have heard that doing puzzles (jigsaw, crossword, whatever)
    actually helps maintain your mental acuity. Every day I do the daily puzzle from the jigzone as well as the USA Today puzzles.

    Then, of course, I piece and quilt!

    9min and 37 seconds I am usually pretty good at these but this was a tuffy. Only did the first one. Will have to try the others another time.

    fluffbug,

    this reminds me of the old tv commercial, "time to make the donuts, time to make the donuts,.... "

    I'm having trouble with these webpages.
    The page continues to say "loading".
    I never get to the puzzle.
    Is it my pc or are others of you having problems?

    No problems here either. Sometimes when a link won't take me to a page it will work if I just type in the "www."
