KOLCC  =  CLOCK,  FNISF  =  SNIFF,  CRVEEL  =  CLEVER,  ISISNT  =  INSIST   —   Giving us:  CKSNEESIS

Clue/Question:  The doctor was great at diagnosing her patients as a result of her . . .

Answer:  “SICK“ SENSE

(Wow!  Kidney stones AND bad breath???  On top of fallen arches, a beer-belly AND a bad comb-over???  I’m telling you, getting old is a bitch!  Fortunate for you guys, yer uncle decided to remain 39 for the rest of his life. 

The usual great clue word jumbling.  I was surprised to find that both “clock” and “clever” are new to the ralis95 clue word database.  Both pretty ordinary CL words.  The answer letter layout gave nothing away.  And, a no nonsense, no “bonus clue” cartoon.   That is all.  Be well, then go out and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

PS.   For the guys, especially!  Whenever you’re going to have a DRE done . . .  always try to have a female doc, or P.A., perform it.  Trust me on this.   —   YUR

PPS.   Maybe you guys are lucky that Zemanta doesn’t seem to be working today . . . again.   —   YUR
