(No matter how clever this statement is, I’m just NOT in the mood for any more elitism!  I hope that Mitt, Rick and the Koch Brothers – and their (1 – 2 %) kind – eat some tainted caviar, and come down with something that resembles dysentery!  Screw ’em all.)   —   YUR

Visual Description:  Morning of the Unceased Deceased.

EVAWE  =  WEAVE,  WAEAK  =  AWAKE,  RAIGCL  =  GARLIC,  DOSDYH  =  SHODDY   —   Giving us:  AVEWAEGAIDDY

Clue/Question:  He couldn’t keep the fact that he was a zombie a secret because he was a . . .

Answer:  DEAD GIVEAWAY

(I liked today’s Jumble, a lot!  Great cartoon!  Great scrambled clue words!  Non-obvious answer letter layout.  And, a fun little pun!  I don’t think anything was all that tough, but the whole thing just works!  Thirty miles NW of NYC we are, more or less, experiencing the calm before the storm.  We’ve had some light to moderate rain, off and on, throughout the day, but nothing big and no real wind . . . yet.  We will see how this whole thing plays out, starting in the next hour or two, or three.  All of you in Irene’s path, please be careful!  As I write this, it sounds as though the rain might be . . . never mind,  just a brief downpour.  Be well, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.  REMINDER TO ANY OF YOU NEWBIES:  Whenever Yer Uncle Rave NEEDS  your help on any of these puzzles he WILL ASK FOR IT.  I ain’t all that proud, folks.  When I’m stumped I admit it.  Please refrain from sending in YOUR solutions.  AFTER I’ve posted the spoiler, please feel free to correct me, or comment on the puzzle or my commentary . . . or current events, the weather, whatever.  

Warm Regards,  

The Management
