Jumble Spoiler – 05/19/10

Visual Description:  Beat cop soaking his tired, achy feet.

NONAY  =  ANNOY,  IMECH  =  CHIME,  VIMOTE  =  MOTIVE,  YIPRAC  =  PIRACY —   Giving us:  ANHEMERCY

Clue/Question:  What the patrolman considered his flat feet.

Answer:  The “ARCH” ENEMY

(I zipped through the clue words.  Well, “piracy” tripped me up for a few seconds.  But, when I tried to get the answer I went blank.  I tried ralis’ way, but it didn’t help.  After ruling out sole, heel, ball and toe I finally thought of “arch”, and then I kind of bopped myself on the forehead and said: Duh! Great scrambling of the answer letters!  Hope you guys enjoyed getting it today!)   — YUR
