Visual Description:  A concessionist ordering around a condimentor.

CNUED  =  DUNCE,  MPCAH  =  CHAMP,  SCITHW  =  SWITCH,  QAHUSS  =  SQUASH   —   Giving us:  CCPTHUA

Clue/Question:  He was running behind with his mustard deliveries and needed to do this.

Answer:  CATCH UP

(Reminds me of the joke that Mia Wallace – Uma Thurman – reluctantly tells Vincent Vega – John Travolta – in the denouement of that gripping scene in Pulp Fiction!  Excellent movie!  Who, besides me, remembers that joke?

All the clue words were expertly jumbled.  Two new clue words, in “switch” and “squash”.  That should please our old friend, ralis95.  Even the answer letter layout was jumbled nicely.  No giveaway! 

They’re not yet playing any games at Wrigley Field, so it looks like Jeff is pretty anxious for the MLB season to start.  If he IS a Cubs fan, it looks like he’s in for another season of frustration and disappointment .  I’m seeing predictions that place them no higher than 4th or 5th place in the NL Central.  And believe me, as a Mets fan, I’m a friggin’ expert in frustration and disappointment .  My guys are predicted to finish dead last in the NL East.  But that won’t stop me from cheering them on!  Hey!  Ya gotta believe!  Be well, do good and always look up, friends.)   —   YUR
