(I like it, a lot!  No new clue words, but everything was jumbled really well.  The answer letter layout didn’t give anything away.  Jeff’s great cartoon sets up the gag perfectly.  The guys gotta take a break from these fill-in-the-blank/continuation ones.  They’re getting too easy.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(Author of:  When the Legends Die.  I read that sometime in my youth.  I don’t remember if it was for school, or if I read it while on summer vacation, up in Dwight, Ontario.  It must have made an impression on me, because I recognized his name right away.  Be well and do good, friends.  And, step away from the computer – and the other idiot box – and read a good book, from time to time.  It will help keep you sane.)   —   YUR
