Jumble Spoiler – 06/25/13

English: American alligator and crocodile (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Visual Description:  Cold blooded detective, getting down to business.

KANEL  =  ANKLE,  OCTIX  =  TOXIC,  LAVRUG  =  VULGAR,  SHIRTT  =  THIRST   —   Giving us:  ANETOIVGRTIS

Clue/Question:  The crocodile needed help solving a case, so she called in . . .

Answer:  AN “INVESTI–GATOR“

(Beautiful!  No new clue words today, but some great jumbling.  I really liked “vulgar” and “thirst”  Fantastic job on the answer letter layout!  Nothing given away there!  I liked the way Jeff drew the difference between crocodiles and alligators.  I always wondered, given the same age and size, which would win in a fight?  The bull-gator, or the bull-croc?  All I know is that I wouldn’t want to mess with either one of them.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
