Quite nice but did take some "educated" guessing around the hat.

hahaha....ever see "Nobody's Fool"? Every night Paul Newman pisses on and kills the newly-put flowers on a grave on his way home from the bar. pretty funny, and great flick altogether!
#8: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 23, 2013
Sounds very similar. :) Haven't seen it, though.
#9: Kurt Kowalczyk (bahabro) on Jun 23, 2013
go rent it! that's one of those fantastic movies that somehow slipped through the cracks and nobody knows about...got Newman, Bruce Willis, Jessica Tandy, Melanie Griffith in it. Both funny as hell and heart-warming to boot. Highly recommend it!

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by gator.
#11: Gator (gator) on Jun 23, 2013 [HINT]
All of these steps may not be required...

After the color/line logic, I used edge logic on row 22 to make R22C20-21 dots. Lots more line logic.

I then used two-way logic to dot most of the rest of row 11 as R11C2 or R11C4 has to be black from completing the 2 clue at R12C3.

I used edge logic with the 5 clue in column 1 to make R1C1-R3C1 dots. More line logic.

The 3 in column 10 cannot go in R7C10-R9C10 without making column 9 invalid. The rest is line logic.

yeah, just a lil bit... thanks, Gator

a pleasure, as always Jota. glad you liked it!

I didn't need to do the 2-way logic in R11 that Gator listed in his hints, but I did use the other three advanced steps (though I did the EL in C1 and the 2-way in C10 in reverse order).
