    If you were just a teeny-weeny bit smarter, just like a pigeon-turd smidge, that analogy would have had at least some kind of meaning.

    It would be way more impressive if he completed the SUNDAY NY Times crossword puzzle in less than 2.5 minutes. Heck, *I* can complete the Monday one. I don’t doubt that he’s a puzzle whiz, but this isn’t the best proof.

    Writing and thinking does have an effect on the penmenship. The worse the penmenship, probably, the faster you think, I don’t know.

    If he is so talented as in “genius” for doing crossword under 5 min. Then he should be as smart as Einstein. But he isnt, if he is like Einstein smart, he would be everywhere across the media.
