Catching some ZZZzzz

I'm volunteering at the Day Center tomorrow -- the place in town where homeless people can get coffee, store some belongings, take a shower, do laundry, and otherwise stay out of the elements. Today we had a downpour that lasted over an hour. This is the desert, and it was probably more rain than we would normally get in a couple of months. Anyway, I need to be there at 7 tomorrow morning, so this will be a short post.

Excellent puzzle. Brendan Emmett Quigley never disappoints. Looking at all the ZZZzzz makes me a little sleepy.

17A: Pitcher of baseball's Gas House Gang (Dizzy Dean)
30A: Golf's 1984 U.S. Open winner (Fuzzy Zoeller)
44A: Patriach on an MTV reality show (Ozzy Osbourne)
60A: The Fresh Prince's partner DJ (Jazzy Jeff)

And that's not all. 20A: Old codger (geezer) is under Dizzy Dean, and 4D: Bronx cheer (razz) intersects both of them. Rounding it out is 3D: Moves like molasses (oozes).

Other Z words and intersections

34D: Knock the socks off (amaze)

35D: Take forcibly (seize)

43D: Baseball's David, nicknamed "Big Papi" (Ortiz)

62D: Microwave (zap)

8D: Exotic dancer Lola (Montez)

Fun fill

63A: How the confident solve (in pen). Love that one. We've had that discussion (maybe multiple times) on Rex Parker's blog.

57A: With "cum" and 32-Down, a diploma phrase (magna/laude)

Not sure if 30D: Keister (fanny) is fun fill, but it's the word my dad used when we were growing up. "Get off your keister and set the table."

I wonder if all the ZZZzzz are omens (37A: Signs to heed) that I should get to bed. I think I'll take a couple of Tylenol (26D: Popular reliever of aches) for the pain (41A: Ibuprofen target) in my shoulder that just gnaws (66A: Really bothers, with "at") at me -- and then do just that.

Good night. ZZZzzz...
