So, after a day of being reminded how crazy Boston is to drive in, I'm back at the puzzle, which may be even more maddening.

I've got 5 boxes complete, and a number missing 1 or 2. Now I'm just going down each column. So, on the left-hand side, in the third box on talk-show hosts, what connects Jay Leno and cars, and will it then be obvious how that links to mafia?

Also, in the fourth box down what connects to F and science?

What is even happening?

You were in Boston, megan?

I can't get the thing that links cars and mafia. Jay Leno is in a triangle with cars and motorcycles, though.

Interesting commentary on the Richards incident: [link]

megan: It's something else Jay collects besides cars. Think two wheels. That might help with the one connecting to mafia.

I don't have the answer to your second question yet either.

Cindy, it's not cars and mafia that are linked, it's motorcycles and mafia. Think of the connection as a motorcycle gang. The possesive indicated in the clue should help.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The hecklers are trying to get sympathy? Lord have mercy. Can't they just kick back and enjoy Richards getting slammed?

You were in Boston, megan?

I'm at my sister's in Weston for a few days, but I had a meeting in Cambridge today. I don't know what's worse, the parking, or the general lack of signage.

I'm getting the pig!

megan, think of where they give you the grade F .

I have that connection to F. I don't have the one down and to the left from there.

The whole association between mafia and Scientology confused me. That was a section I filled out strictly by copying from here.
