Clue/Question:  The woman returning the clock did this.

Answer:  TICKED HIM OFF

(Uh, uh, uhh!  The customer is always right!  As long as they don’t get abusive.  But, there are always the rare exceptions.  To me, that woman’s look screams:  CRACKPOT!  Some good clue words today, but nothing to write home about.  The answer letters were scrambled excellently, again!  The guys seem to be clicking on all cylinders, lately.  I got too much sun today, and I feel like I have a little heat stroke.  So, I’m going to end things here.  Be well, do good.)   —   YUR
