(Not bad.  Not tough, but not bad.  The new clue word drought continues!  I blame Climate Change, due to Man Made Global Warming!  Suck on it, Weather Channel dude!  The jumbling was alright.  Didn’t get tripped up on anything today.  Good job of making the miner look unengaged.  Mining and drilling have also taken their toll on this old world of ours.  Take, take, take take, take!  Don’t worry about the consequences.  As long as we get we want.  Let someone else worry about the cleanup and the long-term effects.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(I started out looking for someone like that.  But, I was seduced by someone who was gorgeous and nurturing instead.  This one really had me going for a while.  Especially, because I started out having the fifth word as SIGN, the second word ending in ING and the ninth word ending is SS.  Not a good way to go about solving this one!  Even without the bad start this was difficult.  No single letter words.  No THE, AND, ANY, ARE, NOT, ONE or YOU.  And, how often does the word CHIEF come up???  Not all that often.  It even took me about half way through solving it before I realized who the author was.  Of course, I try solving these without looking at the author, as much as possible.  If I had keyed in on the author I probably would have solved it much sooner.  Nice challenge!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
