  Awesome puzzle Leonard! I'm still very new at cryptics but I managed to work my way through about half of these before giving up. My favorite was TASKFORCE

  Looking forward to the next one already!

      Thanks! I think I get almost all of them now, but can you walk me through EBENEZER? I'm mostly curious about where the E comes from

        Think point on a compass rose.

  Lol, don't look at my time! First cryptic ever - opened on another computer and revealed, then filled in the answers with attention to clues. Awesome, Leonard! I'm looking for more cryptics now.

    Thanks for the feedback. I’ll likely do another in a week or two.

  Hey, this was good! I liked "stegosaurus!"
