Jumble Spoiler – 01/11/12

Visual Description:  Platonic prescription of perseverance.

SKIRM  =  SMIRK,  MUTPH  =  THUMP,  FTEESW  =  FEWEST,  CITTEK  =  TICKET   —   Giving us:  SIKTHUWTTIC

Clue/Question:  His glue business would eventually succeed if he did this.

Answer:  STUCK WITH IT

(Now, this one is your classic bad pun!  But, I’m very fond of all puns.  I think those who groan at puns have been conditioned to do so.  People love to deny indoctrination, as a reason for anything, because everyone is so enamored with the idea free will.  Guess what, kids?  It all depends on how you were nurtured.  What does that have to do with today’s jumble?  Absolutely nothing!  I just felt like yelling at y’all/y’uns a bit.  Sleepwalking is frowned upon here at Unclerave’s Wordy Weblog, so occasionally you will be submitted to a rant, or two.  Just to spice things up a l’il.  If you were looking for a plain vanilla, Wonder Bread, unflavored empty-caloried rice-cake experience then you have arrived at the wrong site.  But, don’t worry.  The exits are clearly marked and refunds are processed cheerfully!  Of course those refunds will be in the form of store credit, but that’s just our policy.  Be sure to stop in our Gift Shop on the way out.  We’re running a special on Jumble Mugs!  Be well, do good . . . and don’t try to pass any of that funny money here.  Because then you’ll really be in trouble.)   —   YUR
