Clue/Question: Occasionally, a family does this to make ends meet.
Answer: ENDS MEAT
(Good pun. Great all around scrambling. Nice cartoon. Nowadays, some families are fortunate to even have grilled cheese sandwiches! Good news on the ankle front! It looks like the cast is bringing things in line. No more talk of surgery! See him again in 4 weeks, where he’ll remove this cast. Then, I either go back to the “boot”, or he’ll put me in a walking cast. So relieved! Be good, do good, friends.) — YUR

This one would have to be a reflection on the general health of our economy, because we all have to do our “DAMN BEST” to make ends meet. A little tricky for me, with eight letters and only two vowels.
Hey! Your avatar looks a little like a slice of American cheese, Steve! What did you get for “ebongy”, brother? I’m assuming that’s where we differ in the available answer letters.

Good news concerning tne leg! Boonie must be looking out for you! 🙂
End meat or meet your end.
Glad you’re feeling better, Yur.
Yes, I concede your answer sounds right. . . as always. I did have bygone correct. And I tried to use one vowel for each word, but I somehow missed the obvious. Good job Unclerave!

How can I ask the online version of the jumble?
Joe,
A lot of newspapers will let you access the online version. You might have to register, or subscribe, though. Or, you could just Google or Bing “Jumble” and see what comes up. Good luck!
