(Though not a strict pacifist, I always strive to take the non-violent route.  Sure, I still embrace our inherent animal nature.  There’s just no denying it.  But, we’re supposed to be – at least – a little above all that.  We have to be . . . if we claim to be civilized.  Be well and do no harm to each other, friends.)   —   YUR

(Can anyone else hear Patsy Cline singing???  This was pretty good for a Monday.  None of the clue words were new, and I didn’t have trouble with any of them.  The answer letter layout was fantastic!  Before reading the clue/question, I thought that one of the answer words might be SELF, or ITSELF.  Of course, there’s no T in the answer letters, but it was just an initial gut reaction, I guess.  Cute cartoon.  Oh, that Jeff and his Westies!  Is this your mom, Jeff?  I’m going to leave you guys with two appropriate songs.  See below.  Nothing li’l bit about ’em.  Full out Country . . . and Funk, respectively.  Be well and do good, friends!)   —   YUR
