Crossword Puzzle

I never really think about cultural boundaries existing within families. How could they, right? I mean, after 21 years, me and my parents know each other pretty damn well. Then my dad told me to put "olivia" in 20-down.

"...and do you know how to spell 'Roosevelt'?"

I checked the clues. "Who's Olivia Roosevelt?" Because, that's not what you think first, is it, that your dad's just plain wrong?

"FDR's wife."

It was just weird, that's all. I think of the name Eleanor Roosevelt as about as household as Abraham Lincoln or Luke Skywalker. (Then again, Dad thinks Harrison Ford played him.)
