Clue/Question: With so many people wanting her to gaze into her crystal ball she did this.
Answer: MADE A FORTUNE
(Apologies for the late posting! Would’ve done it around 11:30 AM but was called away on a minor family emergency. And after that we had to go to a family birthday/Labor Day/going away party that just recently broke up. I thought today’s puzzle was fairly challenging. Good clue words, and I didn’t find the answer obvious. The answer letter layout gave nothing away. I’ve never been to one of these people before. I once tried to see a palmologist, but she told me it was too early in the morning – around 10:00 AM, on a weekday – and sent me away. I think it’s all a con, but whatever floats yer boat! Be well, friends.) — YUR

Fedora was the hardest word for me. I couldn’t figure it out and once I read it on here, I was disappointed I didn’t see it for myself.
Sometimes . . . Death Takes a Holiday! 😉 Don’t sweat it, bud. You can never tell what word is going to trip you up. The funny thing is we’ve had FEDORA before. The scrambling might have been different, but I know we’ve seen it here before. Tomorrow is another day . . . and another Jumble.

I didn’t get Sunday paper so I tried to get clue words from this website, but ended up seeing answers for all the words except INDUCT. Oh, well, as for palm reading…I was told I would be married 3x…the lady pulled me back into the chair when I refused to hear more…and said that I had to come back because it was very important…within a year my second husband had cancer…and within 2 years I remarried…#3!
Do you think it was really something in your palm, or something else she was able to gauge by your overall appearance and demeanor?

The 2 other times that I had my palm read, the one gal was just so off, but one in Wildwood, NJ was telling me things about my past, present, and future that were specific and ended up accurate. For a number of other reasons, I can tell you that it is more than just appearance and demeanor. But that would be another blog, I guess! 🙂
