I was doing my usual crossword puzzle, actually my second one tonight, when I was scratching my head over a clue. The clue was "Take the tiller" and the answer was 5 letters. I have been thinking about gardening a lot lately so I thought of the "tiller" as being short for roto-tiller. Anyway, I skipped it for a bit then I read it again and realized I had heard that phrase before...yesterday in fact, when I watched "O Brother Where Art Thou" in which Baby Face Nelson says to Everett "take the tiller will ya?". If I hadn't just watched that movie again, that would have been one of the last answers I would have figured out. The answer was "steer".
