“The world hates change, yet it is the only thing that has brought progress.”   —   Charles Kettering

(So, the next time you see one of those stupid Tea Bagger bumper stickers, or hear Sarah Palin ask:  “How’s that Hopey-Changey thing working out for you?” remember the petulant two year olds, known as the Republican Congressmen, who said: No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No to every significant change suggested by President Obama, during his first two years in office.  Oh, and don’t forget how everything is/was his fault . . . even before he took office.  I guess they feel a good Messiah should be able to turn back the hands of time, snap his fingers, and fix what his predecessor screwed up.  Just imagine what might have been accomplished, if there had been even the slightest spirit of cooperation from the right side of the aisle.)   —   YUR

Sunday Jumble Spoiler – 04/17/11

Image via Wikipedia

Visual Description:  Bob Barker moving into . . . a NEW HOME!

TPIETE  =  PETITE,  FIPCYA  =  PACIFY,  TMRLOA  =  MORTAL,  GVIMON  =  MOVING,  ECWNHR  =  WRENCH,  TWCSIH  =  SWITCH   —   Giving us:  EITPCRAIGRHSW

Clue/Question:  Bob wouldn’t buy a new house until this.

Answer:  THE PRICE WAS RIGHT

(An All–American Jumble!  This might have been a little more challenging for our British friends, and any other country that doesn’t know the game show.  But cake for most Yanks.  Some fun clue words today.  I’m sure ralis95 will be adding to the database.  And, as Keith pointed out earlier, I’m sure more people had trouble with the first two words, than with the other four.  More vowels!  Superior scrambling of the answer letters today!  Not a single word was given away.  Props to Mr. Hoyt.  And, another great cartoon by Mr. Knurek.  Very good likeness of Bob Barker, Jeff.  The dialog was probably enough for most people to figure out the answer.  I’d say today’s “bonus clue” is the real estate sign.  Some people might not pay that much attention to the producers of a show, but I seem to remember they used to make a big deal out of it being a Mark Goodson – Bill Todman Production.  Not super tough, but fun.  Enjoy the remainder of your weekend, folks!  Oh, and don’t forget, friends.  Help control the pet population.  Have your pets spayed or neutered.)   —   YUR
