Clue/Question: She hoped her new billboard would give her company one.
Answer: AN AD–VANTAGE
(Not bad at all! I was very happy to finally see a clue/question that wasn’t one of the fill-in-the-blank/continuation/. . . ones! I think the guys broke some kind of record there! There were no new clue words today, but they were all jumbled well. I had to think a bit on both “unpaid” and “midday”. The answer letter layout was splendiferous! Nothing given away there. Nice little pun, and a nice cartoon. After yesterday’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade I’m really sensitive to – and pretty sick of – all this commercialism! Can’t this country do anything anymore without having to mention some kind of corporate sponsor?!?! Yeesh! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

I need the final answer to a jumble puzzle from 12/23/2004. Thank you. Gene
Gene,
I’m sorry, but I only started this blog in March of 2008. If one of the actual Jumble guys (David L. Hoyt and Jeff Knurek) reads this maybe they could help you out.
Or, if you reply to this with all of the particulars of that Jumble I would venture to solve it for you. I would need the following:
1. The four (or six, if it’s a Sunday Jumble) clue words (jumbled, or unjumbled – your choice)
2. The position of the circled letters (or just those letters)
3. The clue/question
4. The layout of the answer (with any applicable punctuation: dashes and/or quotation marks)
A general description of the cartoon would certainly help too.
If you can provide these things I will definitely give it a shot! I believe another visitor/follower asked for this kind of help, in the past, and I was able to accommodate him.
Regards,
YUR
