Crossword Puzzle

One day, a shy gentleman was preparing to board a plane when he heard
that the Pope was on the same flight. "This is exciting," thought the
genleman.
"I've always been a big fan of the Pope. Perhaps I'll be able to see him
in person." Suddenly, the man realized his seat was right next to the Pope
himself. Still, the gentleman was too shy to speak to the Pope. Shortly
after take-off, the Pope took a crossword puzzle out of his bag and began
working on it.

"This is fantastic", thought the gentleman. "I'm really good at
crosswords.
Perhaps if the Pope gets stuck, he'll ask me for assistance." Almost
immediately, the Pope turned to the man and said, "Excuse me, but do you
know a four letter word referring to a woman that ends in 'unt'?

The man was in shock. He could only think of one word that fit the
description and he was not about to say it to the Pope. The gentleman
thought for a while longer, then it hit him. Turning to the pope, the
gentleman said, "I think you're looking for the word 'aunt'."

"Of course," said the Pope. "Do you have an eraser?"

Greetings: I don't know how I solve them. I just do. I love it when the crossword puzzle is timed, such as the Chicago Sun-Times web site and the Los Angeles Times web site. Those are also the best puzzles on Saturday and Sunday. Those puzzles usually take about twenty minutes to solve, more or less. But, sometimes, I might take more than an hour, although that is very rare. Unfortunately, the New York Times and the Washington Post web sites don't include a timer with their puzzles. Daily puzzles are always too easy, and I solve them within ten minutes. Sometimes, if I'm a little doubtful about how a word is spelled, or if I don't know something, I'll cheat by using the Google search engine. But, I try to do everything myself, without references of any kind. It's more fun that way, and I learn stuff, too. I also enjoy doing codewords and cryptograms, but it's hard to find any on the Internet, and the codeword puzzles are always too easy. The only codeword puzzles I can find on the Internet include clues, which I hate. I do those within two minutes. I want my puzzles without any clues. There are two (02) types of crossword puzzles that I'm NOT able to solve: the cryptic crossword puzzle and the English crossword puzzle. I reckon you have to have been born and raised in England to understand the true meanings of the clues in an English crossword puzzle. I don't know why I can't solve a cryptic crossword puzzle. I buy the New York Times Sunday Crossword Puzzle books, so I have something to do when I go somewhere where I have to sit around and wait, and I use an erasable blue ink ball point pen, because it's easier to see on the black and white grid.

One of the representations of Washington and the entire America may be the popular White House, the official home of the President of the United States. The home of each and every leader except George Washington, it absolutely was actually created by James Hoban in 1792, and after being burnt down by British causes in 1814 was rebuilt in 1818. Although trips of the inner offering the East, Blue, Green, and Red Rooms; the Ballroom; and the State Dining Room should be reserved properly beforehand, every tourist to Washington would want to see this renowned developing, at the very least from the outside. Next door to the White House will be the intricate 1833 Greek Revival Treasury Building and the 1871 Executive Office Building, one of the very most striking previous government houses in Washington.
